Like starcrossed lovers, character and structure are often considered polar opposites, something many writers struggle to reconcile. Yet despite their differences they're the twin foundations of storytelling and work together to engage your audience's heart and mind. To master storytelling, you have to master both character and structure.
Writing coach, manuscript assessor and author Chris Andrews has developed decades of storytelling expertise into a clear and easy-to-follow guide to show you how practical storytelling works.
Easy and fun to read, Character and Structure breaks storytelling down to its basics and explains how and why those basics work.
Each story point is illustrated with examples from: Cast Away, Ferris Bueller's Day Off, Happy Death Day, Miss Congeniality, Monsters Vs Aliens, Pretty Woman, Star Wars, the Matrix and Twilight, showing that no matter what your genre or setting, the foundations of all successful stories are the same.
