Yeah, three-act structure sounds way too complicated and intricate to be helpful, but the plot points seem like they might be useful. I don’t think I’ve seen that specific way to organize a story before.

Maybe I should try to find something specifically on plotting series.

Whoa. Fracture really got hyper. He needs a nap.

Fracture

“Ohh! I’ve always wanted to be suspended in the air! This is so much fun!” Fracture giggled again and swung back and forth on the wall. “I’m so glad you guys showed up. Those three have no idea how to have a good time.” He glared at Krenna, Glace, and Svlys.

@jonas

Yeah, that makes sense. I’m just trying to get through the first draft XD I can’t think about other books!

@savannah_grace2009

Thanks, I’ll take a look at those. One additional difficulty is that I’m working with a series, so plotting that is a bit different.

There we go! That was very, very unnecessary and complicated so sorry Jonas! Anyways….I blame Wyoh. She needs to find a better outlet for all her built up anger than eating posts XD

Hopefully Wyoh doesn’t eat it this time!

Three Act Structure

I personally prefer plot points to the 3 Act, but that’s just me. Anyway, another thing I do is keep a notebook beside my bed at all times (except now because it’s currently in my locker at school). I usually get most inspiration when I’m trying to fall asleep, so that’s what works for me. It really helps me to work out my ideas on paper rather…[Read more]

Plotting.

Plotting and I go way back. (way back as in a month ago)

I went from not plotting at all (which is a horrible idea by the way) to plotting a lot more. Anyway, here’s how I plot. I haven’t plotted a bunch, but from what I’ve done, here’s what I do. I use the 3 Act Structure for plotting, and plot points. I’ll post the links for the “how…[Read more]

I’ll just post it in chunks.

@jonas

Ummm why is this so complicated???? I keep trying to post this but it won’t let me!!!!! So I have to do this instead.

Well. I just typed out a response…and Wyoh came and ate it. I guess she’s hungry today. (or maybe we offended her in some way)

Anyway, I shall type it out again.

It says I posted, but it won’t show up. It’s weird.

@savannah_grace2009

Have you maybe already done a post that’s the same in this thread? It doesn’t let you do duplicates.

Why is it not working? I can’t post what I want to post, but everything else is working!

@savannah_grace2009

lol

Oh, so now it decides to work!!!!!!!!!

My post isn’t posting!!!!!!

@thearcaneaxiom

Yeah, Dawnshard is the book (although I haven’t read it heh heh. I just don’t really care about spoilers from the Stormlight novellas) that gives the most information about the organizational aspects of the Shards. Even there there isn’t that much. Most of what we know isn’t stated, but can be deduced from that book and things…[Read more]
