They discuss how to  \n evaluate and revise action scenes. When characters fight, chase each other,  \n or engage in acts of derring-do, it can be hard to keep track of all the  \n moving parts. Often, the clear image of how the action unfolds in our minds  \n doesn’t make it into the story. If you unpack what’s happening in your  \n action scene, you can make sure that it does everything you intend, and  \n nothing you don’t.\n\n"}
