The setting for your story has more than one purpose.

Make your setting work for you. It's not a crock pot that you plug in and forget. Every setting in your book, whether the overall story location or specific locations within the story, have the power to make your story sing.

  • Create mood and atmosphere.
  • Create suspense.
  • Serve as an essential character in the story.
  • Facilitate action.
  • Help to create pacing.
  • Influence your characters.
  • And more...
