Hello all,
BizMindedWriter here.
I am an aspiring scifi writer. I have great scenes and great dialogue, but I don't know how to use the three act structure to span 50k words. (Outline)
I know some use beat sheet like in Save The Cat, but that doesn't seem to work for me.
I am also a huge fan of Dan Harmon's story circle(which I divide the 4 quadrants into 4 acts) but the same problem arises; I can't seem to get a number of quality scenes that progress the story toward a solid climax.
How does one come up with a progressive chain of events (scenes)that lead to a reader satisfying climax?
Any techniques or methods would be appreciated.
