Structure in Story-telling: The Road-Trip

Telling Your Story with Joyce Maynard

Today, we talk about structure in story-telling. 

What is your story about? 

When you sit down to write, did you consider what you'll be writing about? What is the story that you'd like to tell today? Choose one particular piece of your story, and follow that one, and partly, that means, you recognize and understand where you're headed, and where you want to land, your destination. Joyce calls this exercise, the Road Trip.
