Grammar is the DNA of all great writing. Skilled authors utilize the psycholinguistics of grammar to control their narratives and keep their novels engaging. They know which side of a verb to hug with an adverb; the key difference between an adjective that ends in -ed vs. -ing; the temporal effects of using the present simple versus the present progressive. They can frame a single sentence so that it puppeteers their audience to feel a certain way or expect a certain thing, and they use that same technique to deliver a mind-blowing twist later.
