: Re: How to Structure a single-perspective Novel into Chapters? Now my case is not novel-wide; I have to do this in one part of the novel, but I extended the question to a more generalised one,

Scenes should break when the action is done so that we do not have the dull interconnection between two dynamic pieces of actions that move the story forward.
Chapters should be a unit of story. This can be one scene, this can be many scenes. The important thing is it forms a complete part of the story.
Mastering the art of breaking takes a lot of practice because they are always artistic judgment calls.
