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!

    Inevitable comparison but take how Hunger Games showed Katniss's belief and fear in the inciting incident. We easily empathized with how she sacrificed herself-her own life, almost-guaranteed to lose-for her sister, despite her fear of the brutal system that is Panem and its game, because the opening established who matters to the the protagonist and why. Ultimately, Katniss's love for her sister and her family and their safety was tested to be bigger than anything else.

  • @JhadeSagrav

    Exactly, whereas for Tris there was no sacrifice at all. She was divergent anyway and so she would've been picking something that wasn't 100% her regardless. A bit like a kid choosing to go out of state for college or somewhere nearby. It's a tough choice, sure, but unless we see why it MATTERS, we don't really honestly care. Choosing to die in your sisters place? Well, uhm, yeah, i can see how THAT FRIGGIN MATTERS. Had she been sentencing her family to death by choosing dauntless, then that would've mattered. Bit grim, but at least now there's more at stake than "should i leave home now that i'm an adult?"

Also, can we talk about Rick’s hooks, otherwise known as his first sentences “I didn’t want to be a halfblood” “The end of the world started when a Pegasus landed on the hood of my car” “Even before he was electrocuted, Jason was having a pretty rotten day” “I am Apollo. I used to be a god” And my personal favorite, “no, I refuse to share this part of my story. It was the lowest, most humiliating, most awful week in my 4000 years of life. Tragedy. Disaster. Heartbreak. I will not tell you about it. Why are you still here? Go away. But alas, I suppose I have no choice. Doubtless Zeus expects me to tell you the story as part of my punishment” I know those are more like openings rather than hooks, but if those don’t hook you into the story, then I don’t know what will

    I completely understand Abbie’s opinion about Divergent. When I first read Divergent, I wondered what Tris’ personality was. For me, she was a cardboard-cut heroine who needed to be brave for the sake of the dystopian story. The author emphasized Tris’ love for her family but I didn’t feel it, I didn’t see it. Even her sacrifices and other actions - some of it made sense but the others were just there to serve the purpose of the plot. You know the spark you feel when you first meet a character? It’s like *boom* I like this character. Say Harry Potter - when you understand how it feels to be like him. To be bullied, poor, and underrated. I didn’t get that feeling with Tris. I finished the whole Divergent series and I was awed by the turn of events, but I never did feel the depth of Tris’ character. If you ask me to summarize her personality into three words, I can only tell you this: She’s intelligent, strong, and selfless. Are those characteristics enough? She’s just that. Brave and all. Sounds like another epic hero from any other mainstream book. She doesn’t have a unique quality that makes an unforgettable character. Katniss Everdeen is brave, but she’s soft and vulnerable, no matter how hard she tries to hide it. She’s deliberately cold. She loves her family and she’s loyal to her friends. She’s not prissy. She’s not that girly. She might even survive the Hell Week. She... I can just go on and on. Now, I think this is why people always compare Hunger Games and Divergent. Katniss lives in a dystopian world too. But all her actions make sense. As a reader, I see the reason why she did everything she did. And by the end of Mockingjay, I was crying because the Katniss in the third book was so different from the Katniss I met from the first book. I realized how much the Games had changed her and everything around her. And it just made me sad. Because her story matters to her, and therefore it matters to me as a reader too. I’m going through this because good characters complete stories. Divergent is a good story. But it feels incomplete without a three-dimensional, realistic lead. Abbie is right when she says that characters are very important. We have always believed that a book is about the story. But the truth is, a book is about the character and their story. And why it matters.

    Hmmmm, i wonder if it would be a good exercise to "fix" Tris. What would you have given her to make her your one unforgettable character? How would you have made the inciting incident something that mattered? I'm going to go and think on this. Edit: it's been about 4 seconds, but i thought on it and i swear, even giving her a stuffed piggy named Mr. Gordo would've done more for her personality than what we got in 3 books. (Bonus points if anyone knows the character that Mr. Gordo actually belongs to - a hint: TV, not book or film.)

Abbie's scene cards are a HUGE help if you want to get to writing before you have finished the outline. It helped me to move past a few bumps. Writing in my universe expanded my understanding of it and worked out some timeline issues and plot holes that I couldn't wrap my mind around in outline form. Best of luck to ya, glad to know it's not just me spinning in circles staring at a bunch of sticky notes.

    @@mom2many166 At the other end of the writing scale are pantsers, writers that write by the seat of their pants. You don't know what's going to happen next because they don't know what's going to happen next. Stephen King writes this way; the suspense is real because it's real for the writer as well. Most people fall in the middle. You get four sentences of inspiration, and you start writing, and as you go you learn your character, and then you rewrite a bunch of stuff to throw peril in the path. Maybe hyper plotting gets you around the rewriting, but my gut says the time you spend rewriting equals the time you spend plotting, and it's a lot more fun. The other advantage about writing more about the hero that doesn't get into the final book is that it becomes mental back story. During the first StarWars movie, did anyone see that Darth Vader was actually Luke's father? It fell out of the backstory.

    An idea that I had was a successful cop whose misguided belief was her confidence in herself. She's headstrong and focused to the point where she comes off as arrogant and dismissive of her friends ideas as they may be better than hers. But then someone, her future nemesis, appears and outwits and outmatches at every turn. This leads to disaster because the cop's belief is that she can figure this out herself or else she'll feel she was never meant to be an officer in the first place.

    I feel a bit confused with not accepting ''not knowing what she wants'' as the internal conflict. Maybe I don't get something yet but wouldn't the inciting incident of Divergent matter to Tris because not even the test can tell her where she belongs? However I can't really remember how this conflict was treated in the story so it might not have worked.

    From what I understand, you just pointed out what she wants, 'to belong'. But what I believe Abbie is getting at is that even that desire is not established really. If we saw Tris getting anxious about how important it is to the society and peers around her to be somewhere 'they belong' and believes that she won't be happy unless she also finds where she belongs, then this incident would matter much more. But we just hear her going "I don't really know what to feel". We don't experience her fear or worries, from what I've experienced. Sure she says she's scared, but her tone of voice and actions following don't convince me of that fear. These are just my thoughts though :)

    I think the issue with Divergent isn't that n9t knowing what you want isn't a problem, it's that it's not shown to be her internal struggle. Kee offers some advice, and so does Abbie (view the earlier lessons in this series). But if we see her struggle with this on more of an internal issue, and it's released (probably in slow doses with one last big bomb), we can see her struggle emotionally and bond better with her, also take joy in her overcoming it. I think the film was subtler in it showing this as an internal struggle, if shown at all.

I love The Beautiful Fantastic. Mainly because I love the MC from Downton & pretty much everything she's in. But it's a perfect example and mentor text for my novel. Thank you.

    Mrs. Gulch threatens to have Toto destroyed, and Dorothy sings about a place where she'd rather be. Luke sees the princess' video message and wants to help her. Scrooge gets a visit from Marley's spirit and wants to save himself from Marley's fate. Wendy sees a footprint on the third-floor carpet, together with some leaves from somewhere else. As a result, although daily life continues as normal, the character's mental world has changed. The first goal is established. Dorothy wants to save Toto (but fears what? Abandoning her family?). Luke wants to help the princess by delivering R2 with its Death Star plans to her father on Alderaan (but fears leaving his aunt and uncle who can't run the farm without him). Scrooge wants to save his soul, and is willing to get with the Spirits' program (but fears what?) Wendy is curious about who made the footprint (but fears what?)

    Imho, I think Dorothy and Luke are afraid of stepping outside the status quo. Being younger, they're afraid of "getting in trouble," rather than understanding that this is a chance to 'grow up.' They are of an age where they should start (or already be) asserting themselves, but don't because they've never done it before. Life therefore thrusts them into situations away from those in authority over them (but with kindly guardians), where they have to start making their own decisions. Other authors call this "believing the Lie," and that belief is what keeps the MC from taking action. Scrooge may want to save his soul, but he believes the Lie that a man's value is measured in how much money he has. So, he fears 'giving away" his money, of being charitable. He needed the ghosts to take him outside of his known [mental] world to show him what option(s) were available.

    I think Dorothy fears the witch (a.k.a. Miss Gulch) and so, chooses between the value of her family and value of saving her dog BECAUSE she knows if she stays at home with toto, Miss Gulch will come back. And then hence the story revolving around the witch wanting to "get you my pretty, AND YOUR LITTLE DOG TOO" and it ends in Dorothy standing up to the witch and going home.

    I’m a little confused because many of the things I see you saying aren’t present in Divergent I feel like I’m seeing fairly clearly. Not saying it’s a master class of writing or anything. But to me what Triss wants to be explicitly told where she belongs. She doesn’t know what she wants so an expert opinion will at least be some comfort even if she’s a little scared of either outcome. Getting labeled divergent throws a kink in all that. It’s like being face with a lose lose situation and then finding out that there was a third even worse option for her. Now there is no expert opinion and the choice is totally on her. The grapple with staying in the comfort zone or going beyond that feels pretty obvious to at the choosing ceremony. The comfort zone is staying in Abnegation, the faction that she has grown up with and is familiar with. Vs the unknown territory of any of the other factions. Maybe I’m misunderstanding or somethings just over my head but that seems to make sense to me.

    I'd love you discussing more case studies if you get the chance, Abbie. Really helps pinpoint what I'm doing wrong in my own story. When you see the evidence in movies, it reminds how you can't just shrug and say, "Oh, that'll be ok if I don't fix that issue with my internal conflict." Yep. It matters... otherwise you get that awful dead feel in a story. Or baffling feel. Like you say... need to light up the brain.... to engage the emotions... and techniques matter. Thanks for the huge amount of work you put into these videos.

    I think Tris’ comfort zone was remaining in Abnegation where she could fake fitting in though we know that she desires to know where she belongs like everyone else Then there was the venturing into the unknown of Dauntless in some step to feel like she’s watering that desire since she kinda favors the faction. And avoiding the fear that she might never truly belong anywhere and become like the factionless whose midst she is even afraid to walk through
