Huh?
That problem can be controlled if you plan out your end scene and nail it.
Now if you are like me and you have a hard time killing your babies try asking these questions:
1. What is the purpose of the scene?
2. Does the scene drive the story forward?
3. Is there a a bunch of 'info dump' without much else within the scene?
4. Will your main character(s) (let alone readers) remember the scene 10 pages into the story?
Me~ I'm super guilty of wanting and trying to explain everything.
If your stories are nothing more than a long chain of transformation scenes I'd say collect the best ones and turn them into comic scripts.
But if you are trying to write something more than just a 10 page BE comic, I hope these 'suggestions' help.
All I see now are (BE)comics, (GTS)comics, (FMG)comics... over and over again.
Its nice to see people talking about writing.
