TABLEAU
Beat the romance arc on a board of scenes.
Meeting, friction, longing, rupture, return. See the shape of the relationship before the chapter level locks it in, and adjust the rhythm where it needs to breathe.
- Scenes as cards with status and word counts
- Color labels for plotlines, POV, and beats
- Drag to rearrange before the prose locks in
Tableau
LA PLUME
A close reader for tension and tenderness.
Ask what is electric in a scene and what is going slack. A second reading attentive to what romance asks of prose, restraint, charge, and timing.
- A reader attuned to charge, restraint, and timing
- Pen marks where a sharp editor would set them
- A prompt written for craft, not output
La Plume
THE EDITOR
Margins for the half-thought a character would not say aloud.
Keep interior notes beside the line that holds them. The novel is the said, the margin is the felt.
- Three quiet panes built around the page
- Margin notes pinned to the line they belong to
- A serif page that reads like a printed proof
