Description
A GREAT STORY, WELL TOLD
What are the secrets of good storytelling? Why do some stories flow and others get bogged down in subplots and dead ends? What makes a great story? If you have those dreaded "story problems" this 85,000 word book will help you solve them!
Learn the twelve elements of story: Ideas, Concepts, Conflict, Characters, Plot, Locations, Time, Tone, Genre, and Arena. How each element is critical to building your story, and how a mistake in the choice of any element effects the rest... and may create "story problems".
Using Paul Guay and Stephen Mazur's "Liar Liar" as the primary example, we'll go step-by-step through the construction of a story... and how to tell a story well, why conflict is required, why Story always starts with character... but ISN'T character, Breaking Your Story, Irony, Planting Information, Evolving Story, Leaving No Dramatic Stone Unturned, The Three Greek Unities, The Importance Of Stakes, How to isolate a conflict, your story's theme - and The Thematic Method, and how to create personal stories with blockbuster potential.
