Few authors think of chapter breaks as a writing or revising tool. Mostly, chapter breaks are treated as convenient stopping places. They’re inserted by feel rather than intention. Rarely are chapter breaks analyzed or discussed. Other than the mid-scene cliffhanger, that is.

In reality, chapter breaks aren’t just white space between scenes. They’re powerful tools that control pacing, reveal key information, shift POVs, and propel your story forward. There’s a real science behind them, and mastering chapter breaks is one of the best revision techniques to sharpen your fiction.

In this course, I’m sharing insights and techniques that helped me (and my editorial clients) revise with confidence and craft stories that grip readers and don’t let them go. Trust me when I say that mastering chapter breaks can absolutely transform your writing.
