SPP 064 – The Long-Awaited “Story Beats” Episode




The Story Studio Podcast - Writing, Storytelling, and Marketing Advice for Writers & Business show

Summary: In this episode, we FINALLY got around to talking about "story beats" after being harassed by all of you about it. Story beats are basically what we call our outlining and story-planning process. For discussion, you can download the original story beats for Unicorn Western book 1 here. (And so that you can see what those beats became, you can get Unicorn Western for free on Amazon US here, or search Kobo, B&N, and other stores to find it there.) There's a ton to this discussion, but suffice to say it just makes sense to listen to it rather than me typing it all out here. (Oh, and Dave thought this discussion was useless. Let him know if you disagree.) To view the video version of this episode, go to: Self Publishing Podcast #64 - How to Write and Use Story Beats
