Immerse the reader into the scene

SUBMERGED

How do you immerse the reader into your scene? Make them feel they are there with the character?

By adding the right amount of descriptions, emotions, and inner thoughts to your already solid scene.

Edit your scene. Highlight all descriptive phrases and sentences in a color. Highlight all emotions in another color. Inner thoughts get a third shade.

The emotions and inner thoughts should be sprinkled evenly throughout. Description will be heavier at the beginning and first half, tapering off in the second half, but still active.
