I'm sure others here will have some great pearls of wisdom regarding this. 
Unfortunately, I am not one of them.  By nature, I'm a poet, but when I do 
write stories, they write themselves.  I'm just the scribe.

Subject: [stylist] help with pasing my writing

I don’t really know how to word this but I was wondering if anyone can help 
me with techniques with paissing my writing?  By that I mean...  I want to 
get to the juicy parts of the story but at the same time I need to get 
sertain events and interactions in the story before other things happen.  I 
don’t want the story to get boring but these things need to be included for 
the more juisy parts to make sense.  Also some times I have trouble 
wrighting the less interesting parts because I get excited about what is 
coming.  I want it all to make sense to the reader but to stay interesting 
with out being too jumbled.  I also do not want it to be overly dramatic but 
at the same time it needs to have the right amount of drama to be 
interesting.  Sorry if this question is strange but I would appreciate any 
help.  I think I accomplish this but it is always a struggle and I can not 
be sure with out an audience.  I am also afraid to let people read my work 
untill I have gotten it to a point where I feel it is at least deasent 
enough to be judged.  I have a milion drafts and corections before I even 
consider letting another rip it apart.  Don’t get me wrong I like 
constructive criticism but I give myself the work over first before I take 
it from others.
