```

### Three-Act Structure
```
ACT 1 (25%): Setup
- Introduce protagonist
- Establish world/stakes
- Inciting incident
- First plot point

ACT 2 (50%): Confrontation
- Rising action
- Midpoint reversal
- Complications increase
- All is lost moment

ACT 3 (25%): Resolution

```

### The Story Spine
```
Once upon a time there was...
Every day...
But one day...
Because of that...
Because of that...
Because of that...
Until finally...
And ever since then...
The moral is...
```

## Character Development

### Character Dimensions
```
External:
- Physical appearance
- Mannerisms/habits
- Speech patterns
- Occupation/skills

Internal:
- Core desire (what they want)
- Core need (what they actually need)
- Ghost/wound (past trauma)
- Lie they believe
- Fatal flaw

Relational:
- Key relationships
- Social role
- How others perceive them
```

### Character Arc Template
```
1. Starting State: Who are they at the beginning?
2. Desire: What do they think they want?
3. Need: What do they actually need?
4. The Lie: What false belief holds them back?
5. Catalyst: What forces change?
6. Struggle: What obstacles do they face?
7. Truth: What do they learn?
8. Transformation: How have they changed?
```

## Emotional Engagement

### Show Don't Tell
```
Telling: "She was angry."

Showing: "Her jaw tightened. She gripped the
edge of the table until her knuckles went white."
```

### Sensory Details (5 Senses)
```
Sight: Colors, shapes, movement, light
Sound: Dialogue, ambient noise, silence
Touch: Textures, temperature, pressure
Smell: Scents that evoke memory
Taste: Flavors that ground the scene
```

### Emotional Beats
```
- Start with relatable emotion
- Build tension gradually
- Create anticipation
- Deliver emotional payoff
- Allow breathing room
```

## Conflict Types

### Internal vs External
```
Internal Conflicts:
- Person vs Self
- Moral dilemmas
- Identity crises
- Fear and doubt

External Conflicts:
- Person vs Person
- Person vs Nature
- Person vs Society
- Person vs Technology
- Person vs Supernatural
```

## Dialogue Techniques

### Subtext
```
What characters say ≠ What they mean

Example:
Surface: "That's a nice watch."
Subtext: "I know you've been cheating on me."
```

### Dialogue Tags
```
Use "said" sparingly
Let action replace tags:

Instead of: "I hate you," she said angrily.
Use: "I hate you." She slammed the door.
```

## Opening Hooks

### Types of Hooks
```
1. Action: Start in the middle of something
2. Question: Raise curiosity immediately
3. Character: Introduce compelling voice
4. Setting: Establish unique world
5. Statement: Bold, provocative claim
```

### First Line Formula
```
[Character] + [Action/State] + [Unexpected Element]

Example: "The last man on Earth sat alone in a room.
There was a knock at the door."
```

## Pacing Techniques

### Speed Control
```
Speed Up:
- Short sentences
- Action verbs
- Skip transitions
- Dialogue

Slow Down:
- Long sentences
- Description
- Internal reflection
- Sensory details
```
