Publisher's Summary
Is Structure the Hidden Foundation of All Successful Stories?
Why do some stories work and others don't? The answer is structure. In this IPPY and NIEA Award-winning guide from the author of the bestselling Outlining Your Novel, you will discover the universal underpinnings that guarantee powerful plot and character arcs. An understanding of proper story and scene structure will help you to not only perfectly time your story's major events, but will also provide you with an unerring standard to use in evaluating your novel's pacing and progression.
Structuring Your Novel will show you:
- How to determine the best methods for unleashing your unique and personal vision for your story.
- How to identify common structural weaknesses and flip them around into stunning strengths.
- How to eliminate saggy middles by discovering your "centerpiece."
- Why you should NEVER include conflict on every page.
- How to discover the questions you don't want readers asking about your plot-and then how to get them to ask the right questions.
Story structure has empowered countless bestselling and classic authors. Now it's your turn!

Absolutely Amazing
I only bought this because the reviews were so good. I had thought, can it be that good? Well it is! It has turned starting a novel from a jumped intimidating mess to a clear path. I have now begun and am incredibly excited about it. I heart you Weiland

Great Writer’s Reference
This book removes the mystery about writing a good novel and presents a methodical approach to ensure that your readers are hooked. As well as breaking down each component of the novel, K. M. Weiland provides checklists for authors and answers all the questions related to structure. I learned a lot from reading/listening to this book and I am sure other novice or experienced writers will too.

All the essentials of writing great fiction
Great book that covers all the essentials of fiction with good examples. Narration is a bit monotone and hard to endure at times. Would help to read or watch the supporting books and films first
