“Story structure is one of the pillars of a successful story. Professional editors look for authors who understand story structure and can demonstrate it in their work.”
Steve Jackson
Struggling with your current WIP? Wonder if you have another book in you? Award-winning author, playwright, and screenwriter, Steven G. Jackson explains the elements of proper story structure and shares useful tools for aspiring writers and published authors.
Steven G. Jackson is a recovering engineering director who ignored everyone’s good advice and became a full-time writer. His background isn’t his only distinguishing attribute. Amongst his publications and productions, you’ll find horror novels, mainstream thrillers, and comedies, utilizing all three halves of his brain. He is also a sought-after writing coach. And, if that wasn’t enough, he’s a fine dining aficionado and chef, and rates top restaurants around the globe. So, if you’re looking for unique thrills and chills, you’ve come to the right place.
