Writing With Intentional Plot Structure

Joanna: How can we avoid forcing ourselves into a plotting box when most of the writing advice around us wants us to have this intentional plot structure. If you sit down with a plot structure that has been given to you as though this is the exact way to do it right and then you sit down and try to write that plot structure it is not going to have the same compelling nature, she says. Joanna: We have to learn how to trust the fact that we have gathered this storytelling capacity through the same process it's just happened subconsciously instead of consciously its intention will not help us if we are wired this way. The graph of compelling story is a wider graph than we think it
