This podcast is about plot. Traditionally plot has been constructed in three acts, beginning, middle and end. Story structures such as "Save the Cat" and "Story Grid" and all the countless others are useful for different types of people. Different strokes and all. But for me, they were overwhelming. There was so much that I needed to know about my story that by the time I finished filling out all the info, I didn't enjoy actually writing the story itself.
The idea behind the Plot Roadmap is that each story has its own unique structure and shape. This method borrows and builds on Kurt Vonnegut's "Shape of Story" theory. His theory is brilliant because it give stories their own unique shape. It doesn't reject the three-act structure, but rather reframes it in a way so that each story can be different yet familiar.
The Plot Roadmap accounts for the twist and turns that allow you your outline to be solid yet flexible. The plot roadmap is made up of several different components, highs, lows, quiet moments, info reveals, crisis points cool-down or cliffhanger, which sounds like a fun ride to me.
