Sizzling Story Outlines: How to Outline a Novel or Screenplay, Always Know “What Happens Next” When Plotting a Story, and Finish a Draft Without Freaking Out (Iterative Outlining)

*** VOTED #1 PLOTTING TOOL by WritesWithTools.com ***

Say Good-Bye to Half-Finished Drafts (Or Half-Finished Outlines!)

Does this scenario ring a bell?

When you started to write your novel or screenplay, the words and ideas flowed freely.

But then…they slowed to a trickle.

What happens next? How to take your characters from A to B?

You didn’t know. You ran out of steam.

Net result: you wrote thousands of words that went nowhere. Your story notebook had to be abandoned. *ouch*

Happily, it doesn’t have to be this way.

Imagine Your Writing Life Without the Frustration of False Starts

You can avoid getting stranded in the middle of outlining a story (plotters) or writing it (pantsers).

Instead of getting stuck, you can keep your story moving.

Instead of watching weeks go by, with nothing being written, you can watch your word count grow in leaps and bounds.

Instead of panicking at the sight of the blank page, you can bask in the glow of typing THE END.

How?

By doing some simple prep work in advance.

This writing guide will show you what to do, step by step.

Here’s an overview of the path you’ll take to make writing fun again…

In Part I, You’ll Vet Your Story Idea…

Not all ideas are worth the time it takes to marinate on or outline them—let alone finish a draft based on them.

That’s why you’ll develop your story idea first, to make sure it has the 6 components that all compelling stories share.

This way, you’ll know it has enough:

• substance to sustain a full-length draft
• appeal to attract an audience to it

In Part II, You’ll Build Your Story’s Structure…

This is where you’ll shape your idea into a well-plotted story, with structural markers to write toward.

(Think of it like creating your own novel outline template or script outline template.)

Now, you won’t get stuck. You’ll know where you’re headed; you’ll have purpose and direction when you write.

Are you a pantser? Good news! There’s still plenty of story left to discover.

You can stay close to your characters and “pants away” between each structural signpost—while knowing your story won’t end…well, in a dead end.

Are you a plotter? Then continue on…

In Part III, You’ll Generate ALL the Plot Points in Your Story (Plotters Only)…

As a plotter, when you sit down to write, you want to know exactly what you’re going to write about because this:

• makes writing less stressful for you
• helps you maximize your writing time

That’s why, when plotting a story, you need to know what happens between each structural turning point.

That’s what you’ll figure out now. You’ll use a radical new outlining method to plot out your entire story in as little as 2 hours.

Psst: It incorporates a simple technique Stanford researchers have concluded can make you 60% more creative (on average).

After You Read This Writing Guide, You’ll Never Look at Outlining a Novel or Screenplay Outlines the Same Way Again

No matter your writing style, you’ll know how to make outlining work for you.

You’ll know how to put together a story—without getting lost, without getting frustrated.

Consequently, during your writing sessions, the words will continue to flow freely. You’ll hammer them out on your keyboard like you’re Thor. *grin*
