Rainbow Arcs
with Author Daria Peoples
Is your manuscript stuck? On the page or in your head?
In this session, Daria Peoples will guide you through plotting a story her way, a way she promises will save you a lot of time and energy when planning your stories. She will use one of her texts as an example to demonstrate her process for plotting the internal arc (emotional core) and external arc (action/plot).
Next, she will guide you through plotting your own stories, starting with the information you do know about your story and filling in the gaps for the information you are uncertain about along the way. This process is perfect any genre and for anyone who is starting a new project or trying to unstick a project in process.
Special focus and attention will be placed on using Rainbow Arcs to determine the heart of your story, its essential core, before and during your writing process.
This webinar purchase includes lifetime access to the 85-minute video, transcript, and downloadable audio track.
