Who is telling your story? Who are they telling it to? Why are they telling it? This is the Narrative Device! The Narrative Device consists of three main components: Author: The Author is someone who is capable of telling the POP premise as a story to shed light on the problem another person has. SAM: The Single Audience Member is a person with a problem related to the one the protagonist faces in the POP premise. Problem: A specific problem that the POP premise can shed light on. What Shawn, Danielle, and Leslie are trying to teach Tim this week is how this affects every single word of his writing.

Story Tropes: Building Blocks of Scenes 56:05

منذ 3 years56:05

56:05

What are Tropes and how can they actually help your writing? Tropes are a toolbox of common components to build a certain kind of story. You can put these building blocks together to create a story that meets the reader expectations for your particular GENRE. Most lists of tropes are a grab bag of story types and/or their components and aspects. They don’t fit together, so they don’t provide a process for consistently crafting scenes and stories that satisfy readers. In the Story Grid Universe, we provide this process by limiting the definition of a trope to a particular level of Story. Story Grid tropes are small story units that are the building blocks writers need to create the arc of change within scenes. In this episode, we start working through the Tropes for the short story EYE WITNESS by Ed McBain (https://amzn.to/3Q2UpqV).
