How To Write a TEMPTATION MOMENT (Alternative to Disaster)

Описание: Did you know there is an ALTERNATIVE to the "Disaster/Dark Moment" plot point in the 3 act story structure? I like to call it the Moment of Temptation...and it can be the most compelling way to lead your protagonist to their "aha" moment! In today's video I'm breaking down what the Moment of Temptation is, what makes it so memorable, and case-studying some stories that pull it off really well.

My name is Abbie Emmons I teach writers how to make their stories matter by harnessing the power and psychology of storytelling, transforming their ideas into a masterpiece, and creating a lifestyle that makes their author dreams come true.

Story isn’t about “what happens” — it’s about how what happens affects and transforms the characters. I believe that there is an exact science (a recipe, if you will) behind a perfect story. And if you know what ingredients you need, you can create your own perfect story with ease and confidence. That’s what we talk about every week on this channel – and if it’s something you’re into, be sure to subscribe and join this community!
