How to Write the First Plot Point of a Story
What's up, my friend? Today we're continuing our breakdown of the 3-act story structure – and we're talking all about the 1ST PLOT POINT (aka: the first big decision your protagonist makes after the inciting incident.) Comment below and tell me: what's a great example of a first plot point?

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!
