27 Principles of Story. Secrets of Storytelling from Hamlet to South Park

It doesn't matter what you are writing — a novel, a screenplay for a movie or series, a play, a podcast, or a comic — the principles of story construction are the same for everything. AND THERE ARE 27 OF... THEM!

This book will teach you how to create a story with a beginning, middle, and end. A story that captivates and creates tension, one that keeps the reader guessing what will happen next.

You won't find any literary theory, academic complex concepts, or professional jargon here. All twenty-seven principles are presented in simple human language. If you want to learn step by step how to best tell a coherent, credible story, you will find what you need here. If you don't accept any frameworks and prefer a more free-flowing imagination, you can study each principle separately and use only those that seem most useful to you. The main focus here is only on you.
