Is Structure the Hidden Foundation of All Successful Stories?

Why do some stories work and others don't? The answer is structure. In this IPPY and NIEA Award-winning guide from the author of the bestselling Outlining Your Novel, you will discover the universal underpinnings that guarantee powerful plot and character arcs. An understanding of proper story and scene structure will help you to not only perfectly time your story's major events, but will also provide you with an unerring standard to use in evaluating your novel's pacing and progression.

Structuring Your Novel will show you:

  • How to determine the best methods for unleashing your unique and personal vision for your story.
  • How to identify common structural weaknesses and flip them around into stunning strengths.
  • How to eliminate saggy middles by discovering your "centerpiece."
  • Why you should NEVER include conflict on every page.
  • How to discover the questions you don't want readers asking about your plot-and then how to get them to ask the right questions.

Story structure has empowered countless bestselling and classic authors. Now it's your turn!

One of the best books on writing there are.
Weiland has mastered the art of teaching without lecturing. She avoids pseudo-intellectual babble and rather scetches out the theoretical part in undestandable and vivid language, then gives prominent examples and atvthe end of each chapter gives a crisp summary of the most important points.
A must-read if you want to write yourself. But even if you do no, this book will give you valuable insight on how stories work, thus helps appreciate avgiod book movie even more and understand what is wrong with the bad ones.
