Hi, Fae. Yeah, me, too. I wanted to draw but even stick figures are tough for me. Oh, well, I like the mapping idea with letters for where the characters are. I could have used that for the last scene in Remains To Be Seen.
Thanks!

Also a flat map with letters marking where each character is standing (or hiding). Thanks!

Very good! Another tool to help visualize a scene. This could have been a series of essays. Thanks, Denise.

I usually use a combination of pinterest and a planner for working out some of the visualization.

Street view! Yes, yes, good ideas that might have found their way into this essay if I'd thought of them. Jack Bowie is the author of the Adam Braxton technothrillers. Don't cane me sir, I've fallen behind and have not read The Jason Betrayal.

I'm a "visual learner" and make extensive use of Google maps (street view) when my characters are winding through the streets of Budapest, etc. But interiors are harder and this will definitely help!
