aynathie's WIR, I've been thinking about one of the problem scenes in The Silver Bowl. After reading some similar scenes in Anna's story, I think I understand now why my scene doesn't work, but now I have two possible paths to go down. The first is to give up trying to get any tension out of the series of events and just summarize it all to get it out of the way, I'm pretty sure that's doable. The second is to try a lot harder to make the scene work, and that means really trying - adding new scenes before it, new characters to fill those scenes and possibly new plot twists too. I've got no idea if I can pull that off or not.
I'm going to have to think carefully about this.
