This 'Pacing the Readers Emotions' course is an excellent idea; I've seen it from both ends, both with my work, and felt it with the work of others. It's a very hard concept to grasp that what you're writing isn't having the intended emotional grab you're feeling and I have yet to read anything, anywhere, that suggests a fresh way to look at it, short of leaving your story in a drawer for a few months then going back to it. I'd love to see this. Thanks!
