I'm used to an 18 major scene structure taught by a screen writer who is still working in the screen industry but the way you describe this and show how it works gives me a clearer idea of what she was doing. Maybe my difficulty was based in terminology, but again, the graphics are great and show me what I need to be doing.

But successful writers, even though they don't understand structure, will by osmosis "stumble" upon it, or work it into their stories by sharing it with the various readers and partners associated with the project. Chapter 4 of the book talks about how this happens through various organic processes.Stan Williamshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12084603289444240062noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3841939281455717340.post-67537317975389820882011-07-15T07:36:47.971-05:002011-07-15T07:36:47.971-05:00So, a year late to the party, but still a great po...So, a year late to the party, but still a great post.<br /><br />I've had numerous 'discussions with people about story structure (I "discovered" how essential it is a little over a year ago) and I think it's a binary proposition - either writers understand the need, or refuse to acknowledge its existence. When you can point out, in any successful movie or book, each of these steps it seems pretty clear that something's at work. <br /><br />Thanks for posting this. There's a nice layer of character development I haven't seen before.<br /><br />Cheers,Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
