Write down your story beats on Post-It notes, one beat per Post-It. What’s a story beat? It’s just something that happens. It can be a verbal exchange between two characters, or a fight, or a kiss, or a discovery, or a revelation that a character has in the quiet of her head. One per Post-It. Your desk should be covered in Post-Its when you’re done. It’s okay to put every crazy thought that comes to your mind on a Post-It. Not all of them are going to make it into the plot summary. Gene Luen Yang (THE SHADOW HERO) talks about storytelling tools!
