Re: Advice thread

[nyxelestia]

I've run into this problem, mostly in that either I can't figure out the story, or I meander and have way too much story. I've found this structure to be the best way to boil down the story and get it complete but also under control:

Hook: prologue, set-up for the story, whatever

Act 1/Beginning: rising action, introducing the story (characters and goals)

Turning Point 1/Conflict: obstacles to the goals (aka conflict)

Act 2/Middle: protagonists trying to contend with those obstacles in pursuit of the goal

Turning Point 2/"Action": antagonist/obstacle makes a striking blow against the goal

Turning Point 3/Climax: protagonists are able to overcome this striking blow

Act 3/Ending: The goal is in someway achieved/on its way to being acheived, and fall-out/loose-ends from rest of the story
