Setting Up a Compelling First Act | Using the 27 Chapter Outline System!
Setting Up a Compelling First Act: Using the 27 Chapter Outline System! The first section of the 27 Plot Point Outline sets up the ordinary world, the inciting incident, and the protagonist's reaction. Thomas J. Bellezza breaks down what these three beats need to accomplish, how much to reveal and what to hold back, and why a strong ordinary world makes the disruption hit harder, using Star Wars and The Shawshank Redemption as examples.
~ May our efforts help the community work, grow, and rise together and keep developing "The Write Mindset."
