Anyone here have any trouble with their pacing being too quick?
I recently scanned over an old book I wrote. While I like the scenes I have, and think those scenes individually are paced well enough, the whole book feels pretty rushed - I'm not sure how exactly to describe it, except that there doesn't seem to be a lot of room to breathe. Things keep happening.
Anyone who maybe encountered this, how did you go about fixing the problem? I don't want to add scenes just for the sake of adding scenes, and I don't necessarily want to slow down what I have too much, but I don't want the whole thing to feel like it's prepping for a train wreck. >.<
