If you are an active musician, especially jazz, there are analogies for you between a piece of music and a piece of creative writing. I will be happy to explain a little if you like.
As a writer of plays and musicals... I actually know how to end a chapter just like I know when to end a scene.
I am just trying to stir up conversation and maybe learn something new that will improve my writing. (The whole chapter thing came from enduring an 81 page chapter last night. Really?? 81 pages... chapter two - 90 pages. Really?)
So, please I would love to hear your analogy. I am hoping I am not the only one who will be helped by it.
