I would like you to tell me if there are books or reference sites where the plot list is organized. I mainly thought that when we write a short unit story or when writing a long story I should refer to the list of all the plots. An episode 1. Scene 1. The main character catches monsters on fishing to execute the request of my aunt. Scene 2. Bring catch monsters to town, people are amazed at his abilities. Scene 3. A hero requesting compensation for fulfilling his aunt. My aunt is not Tamutakuti. Scene 4. As my promises, my aunt who signs pretending I could not win. Scene 5. .... Scene 6. .... Scene 7. The aunt sees and reconciles the hero. Is there any site or book that lists plots and scenes? It is as if the story is split like a bit sheet of a scenario, and it should be collected in various ways.
I'm confused. Are you asking for a book that lists every possible plot and every possible scene? Or one that describes how to do such a listing? Or one that lists plots and scenes for a selection of existing works?
I would like to be able to refer to all possible scenes and all the scenes. I think it is a good reference when I write novels on the other hand. But it would be great if it was a long novel that was arranged in such a way. I've always written more than five full-length novels, and I found a plot and scene analysis to refer to, but I could not find it easily.
Here's something that, I believe, it along the lines of your request. Be aware that 'how to do' advice is really 'how they did it' about other writers and it's really up to you, by writing, to discover the methods that work for you. https://thewritepractice.com/scene-list/ Godspeed!
thank you. Is there structure for feature series? Do you have a structure, a template, or a theater for a feature series? When I look at the narrative structure theory of a novel all the time, it feels like it is not suitable for a long series.
I usually just make up my own plots and scenes. It's sort of part of the writing process, and I'm not sure there really are any shortcuts.
Planning does not write a book, but on the other hand, writing does not plan a book either. And honestly, with as many badly plotted books and series that I've read recently, I'm not about to discourage someone from wanting to actually plan their book/series. Still, the old planner vs pantser debate is rather silly. Everyone puts in the same amount of work, but at different stages. There are published and successful authors who are some variation of planner or pantser. It's whatever method works for the individual. And, this is the last part of this little diatribe. Whatever Works for You is up there with Show, Don't Tell as writing advice that is useless if not put in some kind of context. The context of Whatever Works for You is what method helps a writer to finish the piece that they are working on. Godspeed!
...but why would you want to refer to someone else's plot list? you're a writer, write your own. i could never do that.
K.M. Weiland has a Story Structure Database on her site, where she breaks down stories to inciting incident, plot points, climax etc. It's mostly movies, though. https://www.helpingwritersbecomeauthors.com/story-structures/
