Writing Tip of the Day-Scenes

Traditional subjects for the creation of transition paragraphs between scenes are: Time (An hour later...), Date (The following Sunday was...), Weather (It was still raining when...), Circumstances (His leg had healed before...), Emotions (She could hardly believe...) or Physical reactions (Her heart beat slowed as...). Others can be used with good results if you are aware of their purpose.
