The Three Parts of a Story
from How to Write Good · host Daniel Poppie
Every story has three parts, and these three parts have been known to exist for thousands of yours. These three parts are beginning, a middle, and an end. Aristotle said that these were the three parts of a story, and I think that these three parts are the most basic sections we can break a story into. This is not without good reason. Each of these parts is distinct from the others, but each must exist to create a full story. On today’s episode of How to Write Good, I am going to be talking about these three different parts and how they function in a story.
