SUMMARY:My Once Upon a Time\, Lesson 6: Drafting the Core Scene
DESCRIPTION:Lesson 6 — Drafting the Core Scene \n\n\n\nWhat we learned today:  A well-built scene has four components: Physical Action\, Dialogue\, Internal Response\, and Sensory Anchor. Dialogue rules: period inside quotes\, comma before said\, new speaker = new paragraph. Anti-freeze strategies: start with a physical action\, start with dialogue\, or start with one sensory detail. \n\n\n\nWhat we practiced:  We read Fireflies! and identified scene components. We completed a dialogue mechanics mini-lesson. We drafted the central scene of our story — The Moment — targeting 150–200 words. \n\n\n\nWhat belongs in your Story Notebook from this lesson:  Core scene draft — 150–200 words; Word count noted; One favorite sentence underlined \n\n\n\nMentor text used:  Fireflies! by Julie Brinckloe — a masterclass in scene pacing and the narrative turn \n\n\n\nIf you missed this class\, do this first:  Using your Story Arc Planning Sheet\, identify The Moment — your central scene. Draft it in your Story Notebook\, aiming for 150–200 words. Include at least one line of dialogue\, one physical action\, and one sensory detail. If stuck\, start with: [Character] opened / picked up / walked toward… This is the heart of your story.
