'Japanese Structure' Zettelkasten for Fiction: Where Imagination Finds Order - The Book WIP! Ep.49

Welcome to the pre-release inside look series for my book: 'Zettelkasten for Fiction: Where Imagination Finds Order'. Current total word count: 26,245!!!

Episode 49 introduces an alternative to the traditional western style conflict driven narrative. Kishotenketsu is a Japanese/Eastern 4 point structure originally derived from a form of poetry with some very cool aspects to explore. It's responsible for manga, Korean stories/movies, novels -- LOTS of options here! I look forwar to shareing this full chapter in the book!! (and WAIT til we get to World story full on!! There
s something for everyone!)

(we meet on Zoom every Saturday!! Sprints start at 12pm central, workshop at 1pm central and sprints again from 2 to 3pm central!!)
My book is growing out of the questions and conversations I'm having over in LiLLiPub with our amazing writers and readers who are exploring the zettelkasten as a writing tool.

Are YOU a writer? A published author? A fan of all things books? Please join my publishing MOVEMENT to reach 1000 subscribers, because it will help on my mission to assemble a cadre of writers, thinkers and teachers who are harnessing the power of the zettelkasten to begin transforming the world one character, one story, at a time.

It's also growing from my interactions in the Scott Scheper community as I talk with people who are using the zk in ALL sorts of ways! (And, of course, YOU, my YouTube family!!)

Having taught writing for over 16 years at the high school and university level, I have a few resources I would be remiss to not share as beacons for my student's journey:
Stephen Minot gets applause for the deep dive into the theory of fiction writing.
Derek Murphy gets the credit for the 24 "Plot Dot' beats I chose for my Plot Box.
James Scott Bell gets the glory for the importance of the Midpoint and how to write through it.
Sarra Cannon gets all the claps for her own series on plotting, planning and writing.
Brandon Sanderson gets a shout for his generous YouTube sharing of his classes at BYU.
Scott Scheper gets a BIG high five for bringing me into the Antinet Zettelkasten tribe.
Kathleen Spracklen gets the biggest hug for her book 'Writing with Emotion' and co-founding LiLLiPub with ME!!

Wonderful, thank you, Victoria! I’ve written shorter forms since I was young. Now I’m older, retired, with time on my hands to write more sustained work. I’ve been looking for a place to start after a long layover, and coming across your work here is a gift sent!
