Send us Fan MailSo, you've created a great narrative hook and an ordinary world scene for your story, and you're thinking, 'What next?' In this episode, I will share with you the important elements of the next plot point of the first act of your story. The next plot point in the first act is the inciting incident.

I will discuss this plot point in another episode. But today, I want to take the time to point out the elements of the inciting incident.Tools & ResourcesCheck out the blog post | authorpreneurpodcast.com/inciting-incident/Ask a Question on Writing | https://authorpreneurpodcast.com/question/Your Questions Answered | https://authorpreneurpodcast.com/question/faq/Want podcast episode updates sent straight to your inbox? | https://authorpreneurpodcast.com/podcast/tap/Previous EpisodesWhat is Three-Act-Structure? | https://authorpreneurpodcast.com/iap012-three-act-structure/How to Write a Great Story Hook in a Novel | https://authorpreneurpodcast.com/iap013-the-story-hook/How to Write a Great Ordinary World Scene | https://authorpreneurpodcast.com/the-ordinary-world/ My BooksMy Short Story, the Lawn | https://dl.bookfunnel.com/wi5nh80cx4The Candidate | https://books2read.com/the-candidateSuspicion | https://books2read.com/suspicionDuplicity | https://books2read.com/duplicity-adhay/The Locked Room | https://books2read.com/locked-roomSupport the showConnect with me on Social MediaDiscord: https://discord.gg/HZX7HZBQUfFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/authorpreneurpodcastInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/authorpreneurpodcast/X: https://twitter.com/writeradhayYouTube: www.youtube.com/c/authorpreneurpodcast/videosGoodreads: http://www.goodreads.com/authoradhay/Merch Store: https://www.redbubble.com/people/WriterADHay/shop* This is a service or product offered by me** My bookish merchandise store
