In this episode of the Story Works Round Table, Alida and Kathryn have a lively discussion with award-winning author CC Robinson about the art of staging action scenes in writing. Drawing from her theater background, CC shares insights on blocking fight scenes and how to orient readers within the physical space of a story effectively. With real-time sketches and engaging dialogue, we explore the interplay of character goals, motivations, and the dynamics of action sequences. Whether you're a seasoned writer or just starting out, this episode is packed with valuable tips to elevate your storytelling craft.

"It's not just about the action; it’s about the interplay between characters and their goals." - CC Robinson
