Give the story a manageable shape
Plan a session for shaping a story. Make room for the main idea, structure and review, and see what needs another session.
This example runs in your browser without AI. You can also copy a starter to continue in ChatGPT.
A working local example. Your changes stay in this page until you choose to save, copy or download. No AI model is called.
A plan that fits your time
Included tasks are tried in the order shown. A task that does not fit moves to later; a smaller later task may still fit.
- Time available
- 60 min
- Planned
- 50 min
- Spare time
- 10 min
In this session
- Name the point in one sentence
0-10 min | 10 min. Give the piece a direction before adding material.
- Choose the opening moment
10-20 min | 10 min. Help the audience recognize what they are entering.
- Arrange the main example
20-40 min | 20 min. Use a concrete development rather than a list of claims.
- Find the ending or next question
40-50 min | 10 min. Let the piece land without forcing a false conclusion.
Save for later
- Read the sequence aloud
15 min. Hear gaps and notice whether the parts belong together.
This plan uses your time estimates and fits selected steps in their listed order. Steps that do not fit are set aside. Actual timing may vary.
For the moments like this.
You have several good fragments but no clear route through them. There is only a limited session available, and adding more ideas will not necessarily make the piece stronger. Use fictional story-development tasks to choose a manageable amount of work, including time to check whether the opening and ending belong together.
What becomes possible
Edit the story tasks and their time estimates, choose what to include and set your session length. Copy or download what fits and what waits, leaving time to read the sequence aloud and check its meaning.
Put this to work.
