\\n
\\nPeng Shepherd joined us aboard\\xa0Liberty of the Seas for WXR 2022, and returned with us to the topic of story structures. In this episode we answer questions from our live audience. The questions include:
\\n
\\n \\t* How do you make sure you've got the right number of plot threads?
\\n \\t* How do you spread the structure of a given plot line across multiple books?
\\n \\t* How do you avoiding having subplots distract readers from the main plot?
\\n \\t* What are some strategies you can use to better align character goals with the overall problem of the story?
\\n \\t* Are there clear dos and don'ts with regard to story structure?
\\n \\t* How do you prepare or color-code bits for running a role-playing game? More broadly: what organizational tools do you use for story structure?
\\n
\\nFor the answers, you'll have to give the episode a listen...
