Master Your Outline

Story structure is frequently taught by story analysts, talented left-brainers, who may excel at deconstructing a masterpiece, but fail miserably at articulating the mysterious process of story creation. Thus, story structure has become a term many writers resist.

In order to master the art of story, you must learn the process of marrying the wildness of your imagination to the rigor of story structure. Otherwise, simply examining the disparate elements of a well-told story in order to write one yourself, is akin to dissecting a cadaver in order to discover what it means to be human.

Story structure is not a formula – and the structure being alluded to is not the plot, but rather the key experiences that lead to your protagonist’s transformation. In other words, character suggests plot, and when you let go of trying to figure out your story and begin to explore your protagonist’s experiences at key stages in their journey, situations emerge to support those experiences.
