Your setting isn’t just a backdrop—it’s part of the story.
Pick a scene and:
— Add weather that complicates the plot
— Shift the space to mirror or contrast the character’s mood

💥 Writing Tip:
Want tighter prose? Start by cutting adverbs.
Instead of “she ran quickly,” write “she sprinted.”
Strong verbs carry more weight—and clean up your pacing.
It seems simple but it's often forgotten. What’s your favorite adverb-swap?
