Title: SEQUELS - from the livejournal
Post by: pathele on July 24, 2006, 05:45:20 PM

Jim -  in the livejournal, you mentioned sequels and stated that they "are an indispensable portion of your story and will have their own article later." 

I was hoping for some clarification on sequels.  I tried to look up the term, but it just lead to the Rocky IV kind of definition.

And since I know that Jim is a busy man, if anyone else has some insight to this term, I would greatly appreciate it.

thanks

A very basic definition: Scene is when something happens, Sequel is the follow up where the character reacts to what happened.  Here's a link to an article that explains it better.  http://www.rrrw.org/scene.html

Not to take this off-topic, but am I to understand from this that Jim has a livejournal?
