Sure, there are almost
as many Story Development software programs
out there as there are Writing Gurus... so many of them that you are
probably thinking: why do we need another one? The
answer is surprisingly simple.
Until Power Structure,
the only sort of programs available were ones designed for writers who
wanted writing help from some sort of electronic muse, and if you're
anything like us... that just doesn't sound all that attractive.
I'm a
writer because I have stories that I want to tell.
Power
Structure is designed to help me use my existing skills as a writer
to tell these stories better, and to give me tools to help me
discover my own weaknesses as a writer and overcome them myself.
What
it won't do
Tell you "insert
more action here," or "make your protagonist compulsively neat
because your obstacle character is a slob."
If you want that kind
of computerized paint-by-the-numbers help, you'll need to purchase some
other program. However, if you're a writer who wants to write,
then Power Structure is for you.
What
it will do
Inspire you to think
about story elements and character development in ways that you might not
have thought about before.
It will give you a Playground
of the Mind™ :
innovative, graphic methods of looking at your story, its conflicts,
character development and more so that you can easily spot weak
areas and strengthen them. It will let you write in a manner that is
most comfortable to you, letting you jot down ideas and write scenes in
any order you want.
And most of all, it
will simply give you a better place to write.
