    I agree!

Pacing. I never realized how important it was until I saw it explained to me and I still really don't get it.

All my characters sound the same. Apart from giving each one a ridiculous accent, how can I make each voice in a group of peers sound unique?

    Yes, my characters sound the same--like me . I struggle to keep my voice out of theirs.

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!

    You're right, Betty. Hard thing to do and be sure about, but important. I also would like to learn something more about this area.
