The Academy

Specificity

Named, concrete, checkable. Dave from procurement, not "a colleague".

4 lessons

  1. Lesson 1:

    Dave from procurement

    You will replace every vague 'someone' in a setup with a named, checkable character.

  2. Lesson 2:

    Nouns, numbers and times

    You will swap vague nouns, fuzzy quantities, and undefined moments for named, countable, clock-checkable details.

  3. Lesson 3:

    Archetypes as detail engines

    Commit to one archetype per character, then let it generate three checkable actions for your set.

  4. Lesson 4:

    Show the scene

    Stage a visible physical moment in your writing so the judge can picture it and score it.
