I created Get Your Story Straight in 2020 while working as a script consultant and running into the same problems again and again. Writers had strong ideas, but often didn’t yet have a clear storyline that connected character, situation, and intention into something complete.
This interactive story workbook is designed to help you bring clarity and structure to your ideas so the writing process feels easier and more enjoyable. It’s an Ebook you can type directly into, use on an iPad, or print out, whatever works best for you. You can type directly onto this PDF using Preview, Adobe Reader, or an iPad app like GoodNotes or Notability.
 
Available for immediate download upon checkout. 
 
I’ve since updated the workbook and added new coloring book pages, something I’ve always wanted to include! Color digitally for free using Apple Books or Adobe Acrobat Reader on iPad. For a good paid option, I'd use, Procreate. These coloring book pages are there to help you reset your focus and clear your head when you feel stuck or overwhelmed.
 
Inside, you’ll work through guided exercises on character development, story structure, and creating a clear synopsis. The principles apply to any kind of storytelling.
