Most books about writing stories analyse existing texts that use an established language. This book focuses on a time when language was just forming and on those first basic stories. What were those stories about? What inspired them? Which subconscious memories were they describing? These were the questions that inspired this book.
In this book you will discover:
The 5 major plots that guide your story from beginning to end.
The 7 characters in every story. You will know immediately how these characters should act, say and look like.
The 5 minor plots that guarantee interest. Select one of the standard minor challenges and your story gains momentum.
Words to avoid. Learn the vocabulary that appeals to your audience and grabs their attention immediately.
The 2 types of conflict. Physical conflict gets attention but there is another situation that audiences love. It's subtle, it's used in the top-selling movies and novels.
