(10) Structure Never Ends (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Quote of the Week for Strength:“…as we write and revise: we are making structures, that we then fill with particular details, which then, in turn, produces our meaning...structure dictates emphasis, and emphasis produces meaning. I will do this sort of exercise: looking at each substructure (’bit,’ or ‘beat’ or ‘move’ or ‘unit’) in my story,asking it, lovingly but firmly, “Can you tell me 1) just what you’re doing in my story? and 2) if there’s any way I can help you do it better?”<br /

This Week’s Quote on Structure: “A repeated syllable, sound, line, or stanza bears the imprint of what has occurred between its first and second use. Repetition is sameness transformed, which might mean there is no such thing as literal repetition, at least not at these depths. Rituals—whether religious or not—are repetitions, of course, and repetition prepares our neurology for the arrival of something meaningful,” Katie Ford, “My Inmost Book,” from Image Journal.<a class="button primary"
