Reflection on Story Craft Chapter 2

Summary:

In this chapter, the author discusses about how to visualize and plan the story. There are usually five parts in a story. An exposition, rising action, crisis, climax, and falling action.

My Top 3 takeaway:

The storyteller's aim is to keep readers happily lost in the story

Always keep in mind that the crisis has to be very strong, it can be as strong as destroying the protagonist.

The climax is where the crisis is starting to get resolve.

One technique that I will use:

Maybe in the next time, I will plan my story with the story arc more accurately. The author mentioned our real life experience can also provide us some inspiration for the climax of the story. I agree with that and I think that I should make the crisis and the climax of my story more intense.
