Ariadne Writer's Studio is awaiting a substantial rewrite and is currently not available for download.

"Structure is the most important element in the screenplay. It is the force that holds everything together; it is the skeleton, the spine, the foundation."
Syd Field, The Screenwriter's Workbook

Story Structure is our phrase for the way you assemble your story on the larger levels; not the construction of sentences and paragraphs, but the construction of scenes and chapters.

Story Structure, as we understand it, covers concepts like the Three-act structure and The Monomyth; George Polti's 36 Dramatic Situations is a catalogue of story structures.
