Also, if your protagonist needs to know something by a particular time, leave enough clues on the way so the realization feels plausible.Īre there any slow or weak spots that could use some freshening up? Weak spots in the plot are opportunities to create a scene that drops a clue or foreshadows another scene. Make sure you have a good balance between reader hints and character hints. When does your protagonist start to figure it out? Readers often spot things before characters, but if it’s too obvious, then your character might look dumb if they haven’t figured it out yet. You might even want to pique curiosity, then lead readers in the wrong direction for a while to mislead them. When do you want readers to start suspecting things? Sometimes you’ll want a surprise, other times you’ll want the tension to help pull the story along.
