from The Fantasy Writing Show with Jed Herne

There’s one simple change that will make your fantasy prose 10x more immersive and engaging for readers. This change follows something I call The Anchor Principle.Today, I’ll show you how I applied this principle to edit a scene for one of my writing students. Then I’ll show you the same passage in his final published book, so that you can see how he implemented this simple change to massively improve his prose. Once you learn how to use this Anchor Principle I’m about to show you, it’s going to make your writing so much stronger moving forward.Want me to personally help you write a great fantasy novel?
