What Will I Learn?

• Plan your entire story from Day One starting with a no-fuss, stepwise outlining process ... but WITHOUT locking yourself in and cutting off creative expansion as happens with most outlining methods.
• Learn how "casting" your characters the way Hollywood does will give you amazing shortcuts to understanding their personalities, appearance, and mannerisms.
• Use "location scouting" (complete with online, image-based research) to effortlessly build your story's locations and world (even if your world isn't on Planet Earth).
• Find your book's central nuggets by working "narrow to wide," beginning with a single, simple sentence.
• Effortlessly craft a story summary, book description, and boiled-down "elevator pitch" with no extra work as you follow the process.
• Use Scrivener's native organizational features to keep everything together and searchable, right where you need it whenever you require it.
• See how the deepest stories can come from the very simplest of ideas -- and learn how you can make a great story from just about anything.

Requirements

• Scrivener software (not required for planning process, but recommended to get the most out of it).

Target audience

• Authors who want to write better stories faster.
