Summary

What's your story about?

Do you answer with a blank stare when someone asks you that question? Do you have trouble writing your Amazon description? What if you had an attention-grabbing way to leave your audience begging for more?

Story consultant and author Jordan Smith has taken a powerful technique used by professional Hollywood screenwriters to sell their scripts and made it accessible to everyone with Finding the Core of Your Story. It's called a logline--and once you know about it, you'll want to create one for every story you write. Whether you write novels, movies, comic books, songs, or even operas, this book is for you.

good

wasn't quite what I expected - but still helpful. I thought this would be more about how to develop your story rather than articulate it succinctly, but still helped.

The core is the Logline

A concise yet humorous how-to manual by Jordan Smith that has helped me find the core of my story. It’s brilliantly read by Adam Schulmerich. I love it. Highly recommended.
