Under construction, deliberately
The guide
Craft guides for narrative and descriptive writing: openings, structure, imagery, sentence control and endings. This site is growing: the framework is here, and the craft guides arrive as the unit is taught.
Planned contents
- Openings that earn attention (and clichés to avoid)
- Structure: shape, time, tension and the placed detail
- Sentence craft: variety, control and deliberate rule-breaking
- Endings: landing a piece rather than stopping it
Each guide follows the family method: what the text or form is doing, the methods that matter, and analysis that always moves from device to effect.
