Start writing your story today. This guided brainstorming book functions like a writing workshop, prompting authors to brainstorm the different avenues and possibilities their stories might take. The brainstorms inside cover the major elements needed to create an intriguing and cohesive story (main character, goal, complications, and more). After each brainstorm, you'll choose the best ideas for your story. Each section builds another layer of your characters and plot. When finished brainstorming, you will have a detailed outline of your overall story and each of its chapters. This detailed outline will be your guide as you type your first draft.
