Ready to start outlining our NaNo novels using the 3-act story structure?? I'm so excited for today's video! We're going to dive into what the 3-act story structure is and WHY it's so awesome. In this episode I take my protagonist's character profile and combine it with the 3-act structure to create my FIRST real outline. So stoked!!

My name is Abbie Emmons I teach writers how to make their stories matter by harnessing the power and psychology of storytelling, transforming their ideas into a masterpiece, and creating a lifestyle that makes their author dreams come true.
Story isn’t about “what happens” — it’s about how what happens affects and transforms the characters. I believe that there is an exact science (a recipe, if you will) behind a perfect story. And if you know what ingredients you need, you can create your own perfect story with ease and confidence. That’s what we talk about every week on this channel – and if it’s something you’re into, be sure to subscribe and join this community!
