I had Sandra Scofield as an instructor for a week-long writing workshop at Iowa one summer. In class, she was absolutely a no-nonsense kind of teacher and got right to the heart of the matter. So does her book. Not one sentence is unnecessary. The book is filled with useful information about crafting scenes, which are themselves tiny stories with a beginning, middle and end. (Fractals come to mind.) I had an ah-ha moment when reading this book and was almost immediately inspired to pick up my short story writing again, after letting it lay dormant for nearly three years. I'm so excited to write again. I see a path and a new way to let my stories unfold. Mostly, I'm so grateful to Sandra for this book and for all of her work putting it together.Buy The Scene Book: A Primer for the Fiction Writer!
