In 2019

I will not apologize for who I am. I will not soften myself to make my existence easier for you to swallow. I will live and I will be happy because they dont want to see me happy.

me: okay time to jump into the action scene

me: don’t say it

me: don’t say it

me: don’t say it

me: don’t say it

me: don’t say it

me: don’t say it

me: don’t say it

me: don’t say it

me: … “SUDDENLY”

My go-to fixes for this:

  1. but before [Character] could [verb], ACTION!
  2. [Character] was about to [verb] when ACTION!
  3. but no sooner had [something] than ACTION!
  4. but just as [something boring], ACTION!
  5. BANG!/CRASH!/BOOM! ACTION!
  6. “Character dialogue starting some sentence about–” ACTION!
  7. Character’s internal monologue starting some sentACTION!
  8. Narrator starting some– ACTION!
  9. ACTION!

Why extend your readers the courtesy of a ‘suddenly’ except to vary sentence structure?
