I HAVE FOUND THAT THIS IS ONE OF THE MOST REQUESTED TIPS OTHER THAN WRITING ACTION SCENES. This is something that a lot of people have trouble writing, which for me, is confusing because I find these to be the easiest scenes to write. However, that might be because I feel so much and find that writing out my feelings, emotional scenes, and emotional dialogues come easily and make me feel better.
However, I understand that not everybody is the same and can view writing emotional scenes as their downfall. I've always seen them as easy, and sometimes too easy to write.
Now, I'm not saying I'm an expert at writing them. I am in no way, shape, or form amazing when it comes to writing emotional dialogues, etc. I have so much space and room to grow and blossom into a better writer, as do you. What I am pretty good at (in my opinion), is giving advice and gathering together research to help you, the reader, learn how to grow in your writing capabilities. So, I introduce you to 'Grayson's Dumbed-Down Tips and Tricks for Writing Emotional Scenes and Making Your Readers Cry Like a Little Bitch.' Let's get it poppin'.
For this chapter, I have decided to break up my tidbits of advice into sectors that will (hopefully) not overwhelm those who are reading this too much. I did some research as well and integrated my own advice within the articles I will be sharing in this chapter.
