A dark fantasy novel doesn’t have to begin with a map, magic system, or plot twist. It can begin with a character—and the truth they’re desperate to avoid.

✨ STEP 2: THE HERO’S JOURNEY ✨
When it fits my protagonist, I use the Hero’s Journey as a planning guide—not a rigid formula. It helps me map trials, choices and change.
Which story framework do you use?

✨ STEP 1: CHARACTER MOTIVATION ✨
I start with two protagonists and one antagonist, then ask what each wants and why. Their competing motivations reveal the story’s first conflicts.
What drives your protagonist?

A writer's spouse learns to recognize certain phrases.
"I've had an idea."
"I just need to make a quick change."
"I want to try something with the ending."
You smile. You nod. You know that whatever happens next probably isn't going to be quick. 😂
“If your protagonist met you, their author, what would they be angry with you about?”
I torture my characters...so yeah! 😵💫
What about you?
