In this episode of Master Fiction Writing, we explore Step 3 of the Story Development process: What’s the Plot?
Forget sprawling outlines or complex twists. This stage is all about simplicity. You’ll learn how to write a short, clear, and purposeful summary of your story in just 50 words or less. Think of it as your story’s spine: the who, the what, and the why all tied back to your point.
Discover why simplifying your plot at this early stage helps you build a stronger, more flexible foundation and how to avoid the all-too-common trap of overcomplicating before your story is ready.
Whether you’re outlining your novel or revising one, this episode will help you strip your story down to what really matters.
