Writing Your First Book After 40? Ask Yourself This One Question

<p>If you&#39;re over 40 and you&#39;ve always wanted to write a book, your life experience is a real advantage. The disadvantage, though, is that you probably don&#39;t have a lot of margin left to waste on the wrong approach.In this video I walk through the first two elements of the STORY Framework (the specific person your story is about, and the difference between what your character wants and what they actually need). By the end, I&#39;ll give you one question that will tell you honestly, whether your story has a real foundation or whether you&#39;re building on shaky ground.Grab the full STORY Framework as my gift below, and if you want to go deeper, the on-demand workshop walks you through building your story&#39;s complete backbone.STORY Framework (free): https://framework.tcburr.comOn-demand Workshop:https://tcburr.com/products/the-story-framework-ondemandChapters:0:00 The advantage (and disadvantage) of writing after 400:49 The one question I&#39;ll ask you at the end1:16 Why I started with too little structure1:58 The STORY Framework, in brief2:05 The Specific Person2:55 Bringing your real life experience to the page3:26 The Want (tangible, obvious, plot-driving)4:06 The Need (universal, transformation-driving)4:40 Want drives the plot, need drives the transformation4:56 Grab the STORY Framework 5:15 Go deeper with the on-demand STORY workshop5:31 The one question that reveals your story&#39;s foundation#howtowriteanovel #writingtips #storystructure #novelwriting #writingafter40 #writerscommunity #amwriting #debutnovel #firsttimeauthor #alreadyawriter #savethecat #herosjourney</p>
