The main thing I got accomplished today was finalizing my
outline for my book. Having a set structure will sure that my story follows a
logical pattern and hit certain plot points. This is my outline (based on The
Hero’s Journey, a way of structuring I learned in Screenwriting)
Ordinary world- defending the world
Call to adventure- ransom letter, prince has been kidnapped,
bad guy wants all the gold and candy
Refusal of the call- she’s too young, too weak, isn’t she?
Meeting with mentor- dad gives package before leaving, “I
know you can do this”, has packed bag for her (water, food, map, money, rope,
whistleà
for giant lizard, agrees to save brother
Crossing the threshold- she goes into the wood
Tests, Allies, and Enemies- going through forest has answer
huge owl who gives riddles, frees owl, owl, becomes her friend (used to work
for bad guy, scoops hamster at the end)
Goes up mountain, snow squirrels roll snowballs that she has
to dodge and blast with her laser eyes. Ashe accidentally unfreezes half robot
boy from snowball, they become friends
Travel across a lake of ice, lava monster comes the pair
solve the conflict nonviolently by talking it out
Approach to innermost cave-
they enter the valley of the fluffy
Ordeal- a fight with Fluffy Cuddlbum himself, he uses flying
sharks and mini dinos and he knocks her to the ground, she pulls out her
whistle and the owl whisks him off
Reward- she saves her brother
The road back- The 3 make their way back to on a komodo
dragon
