Gravy showcases a South that is constantly evolving, accommodating new immigrants, adopting new traditions, and lovingly maintaining old ones. It uses food as a means to explore all of that, to dig into lesser-known corners of the region, complicate stereotypes, document new dynamics, and give voice to the unsung folk who grow, cook, and serve our daily meals.

Doling out Emotions: Pacing in Fiction
Manage episode 367277934 series 3488062

In this Bonnie and Miranda solo episode, your co-hosts break down pacing from the micro level to the macro. Small things like individual word choice and sentence length can impel your readers forward or slow them down to get them thinking. Pacing at both the micro and macro level can help give your characters and readers time to think and react to the developments of the plot. Ultimately, pacing is all about emotions—in your characters and your readers—and doling them out at the right time for maximum reader enjoyment.
What are some books with great examples of pacing? Or what are some books that did a poor job with pacing? Let us know in the comments or on our socials!
