The Friday 56: Story Engineering


LadyD Books participates in a fun meme every Friday hosted by Freda's Voice

Rules:

*Grab a book, any book.
*Turn to page 56.
*Find any sentence that grabs you.
*Post it.



Larry Brooks writes a wonderful blueprint for story crafting. I am learning an abundance of writing tips from this guy, especially with Larry's guide to six necessary components that go into writing a story.

Here's my Pg. 56

"The key word here is fuse.  As in, integrate.  Character is the catalyst that empowers everything else in your story. Characters experience theme. Characters act out along a linear structure. Characters live out the plot and the antagonistic forces that make plot possible."

-- By Larry Brooks from Story Engineering
