Definitely an advocate of the mid-point reversal. Gives the writer something concrete to work toward and is an excellent reminder to up the stakes and the tension of the story. Most importantly, writers must keep in mind that every scene must move the story forward and add something--to the character development, the story arc, the stakes, all of these building toward the ultimate goal and climax. If every scene contributes meaningful to the story goal, there will be no sag in the middle.
