- Combining Day 5 & 6 for #WritingLifeMonthly: Story structure is more important than many writers give it credit for. I've developed a model that incorporates the antagonist, and it starts with the inciting event. #WritingTip #WritingCommunity blackwolfeditorial.com/bw-story-str...
- 🔎 #WritingLifeMonthly May Day 06 ✏️ Have you planned/written a clear midpoint, climax, and resolution? Did you find it hard to plan or write any of them? #WritingCommunity #AmEditing #AmWriting #WriteSky
- The inciting event of a story is not just the moment that status quo gets flipped upside down for the protagonist. But it's also the moment when the reader gets a glimpse of who or what the main antagonist is for the story. #WritingTip #WritingLifeMonthly #WritingCommunity
- At the midpoint, there is a tonal shift in a story, where the protagonist stops just reacting to what is happening, but they take on a proactive stance. #WritingTip #WritingLifeMonthly #WritingCommunity
- At the final climax of a story, if you have stacked your tension up correctly, it could be either a win for the protagonist or a win for the antagonist. And no, your antagonist doesn't need to be a character. #WritingTip #WritingLifeMonthly #WritingCommunity
- During the aftermath (or the resolution), core plot points are given some form of ending. Not all plot threads need to be tidied up. Leave some threads open. But the main ones need to come to some sort of close. Show the reader the new status quo. #WritingTip #WritingLifeMonthly #WritingCommunityMay 6, 2025 21:30
