| Scene Purpose Balance | Story Health | story health, scene purpose, revision | storyHealth.scenePurposeBalance | Check whether scenes have clear purpose and outcome. | Scene purpose balance | Scene Purpose Balance helps find scenes whose purpose or outcome may be missing. |
Overview
Scene Purpose Balance shows how scenes are distributed by purpose and highlights scenes missing purpose or outcome.
When Should I Use This?
Use it when a chapter feels unfocused, repetitive or hard to justify.
How To Use It
Review missing purpose and outcome links. Decide whether each scene needs clearer intent, a stronger consequence or removal.
Example
A scene may have atmosphere and dialogue but no outcome. That does not make it wrong, but it asks what changes by the end.
Writer Tip
Every scene should give the reader something they did not have before.
Common Mistakes
- Treating purpose labels as formula.
- Keeping scenes because they are well written but consequence-free.
- Ignoring repeated missing outcomes.
