[Maximum Beans · Rating 2 out of 5]

A concise description and comparison of the three act structure in story telling and the seven point plot structure. Which is then repeated. And rehashed. And revisited just in case you forgot what it was about on the previous page. Ad nauseam. Also suffers from lots of spelling mistakes and missing words, so could do with the services of an editor. The actual information being disseminated is written out well in a friendly tone with examples, though, with lots of amusing Star Wars references.
