Ready to jump back into the 3 act story structure? I thought so. Today we're exploring the psychology behind the POST-MIDPOINT ACTION HERO (aka: the second half of act 2.) We also cover the second pinch point, wrapping up the middle act of your story.

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!
