The color of a flower, the scent of something baking--those are the things I let wait until I've got the meat of the story down. Then, the fine tuning. <BR/><BR/>Great topic. And the photo is gorgeous. :)Sarita Leonehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09236262575377618259noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4858367580139664398.post-10746709185486335002008-01-18T16:42:00.000-05:002008-01-18T16:42:00.000-05:00When I layer it is to add more decriptions.

After all, I can see the scene in my head and know what the characters are feeling, doing and seeing.<BR/><BR/>It's only when I go back for that second draft that I realize no one reading this for the first time will figure out where they are, what they're doing or how they're feeling.<BR/><BR/>Sometimes I don't get it all the layers in in the following Susan Macateehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07476340887041053638noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4858367580139664398.post-1724242370842841252008-01-18T15:15:00.000-05:002008-01-18T15:15:00.000-05:00Great blog, Nic.

My CP used to say that I had 'two talking heads' and what were they wearing, where were they, what smells/sounds in the room/area.
