SCSaunders: Clear Instruction. Great Examples. Good Warning.

Great instruction and examples (more always come to mind as I cogitate afterward).

Looking forward to "Excessive Symmetry," like that at the end of the Eclipse installment of the Twilight Series. Maybe? Could this be "coming full circle" to distraction?

tcarb: I think this course and these lessons are marvellous!

Am getting back to fiction writing and I find the advice on character and story structure to be a huge help.

Interested in learning more about the dangers of "excessive symmetry" ........

eindianos: Just what I needed to hear.
