First, let me express the foundation of my writing philosophy: Words hold power. If there is one takeaway from this blog post, that would be it!<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Conveying more with less showcases the care and thought you put into the content you wish to impart. Everyone has varying mental bandwidth for focus, so let&#8217;s complete this self-introduction succinctly.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I&#8217;ve dedicated myself these past dozen years to studying many forms of storytelling, from stageplays to cinema, literature, and games, to answer a simple question: <\/span><b>What is the secret to immersion?<\/b><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This journey has led me to work with small writing circles and giants such as Riot Games. I&#8217;ve taught in film schools and even tackled cutting-edge content in the tech industry. I never predicted that one day, I&#8217;d be training an AI how to transform dry academic research into engaging activities! Currently, I&#8217;m experimenting within the marketing industry to create satisfactory activations to supplant the standard passivity methods.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">That&#8217;s the gist: I&#8217;m an eternal academic, obsessed with immersion, bouncing around many fields with a giant grin.

A hook is only the first step in creating the experience, and you must consider how it aligns with the project as a whole. Your audience is people, not fish. Dissatisfaction is borderline criminal in entertainment, so in keeping this analogy alive, you want to catch AND release.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Picture this: a story with a promising start, a hook that pulls you in, only to end with a weak, unsatisfying payoff. How often has this left you feeling disappointed and disengaged? A good hook with a weak payoff retroactively damages the entire experience. And the question is, how likely are you to return to that same story or go to its sequel? The answer is likely &#8216;No thanks!&#8217;<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A hook is powerful because we naturally crave closure when presented with one. We want to know what happens because a curiosity gap has formed. Applying this in reverse, what question do you want your audience to have after experiencing your hook?<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Understanding how your hook and payoffs connect will allow you to create a satisfying experience. Ultimately, all storytelling is a series of well-connected setups and payoffs that end with a worthwhile conclusion. I call this Domino Storytelling, which ideally leads us into the next section&#8230;<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-109d165 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"109d165\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Mastering Plot Development<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-e7f9974 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"e7f9974\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1024\" height=\"685\" src=\"https:\/\/twist-tales.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/5-Tips-on-Writing-With-Jonathan-Funcke-1-1-1024x685.webp\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-19151\" alt=\"5 Tips on Writing: With Jonathan Funcke\" srcset=\"https:\/\/twist-tales.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/5-Tips-on-Writing-With-Jonathan-Funcke-1-1-1024x685.webp 1024w, https:\/\/twist-tales.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/5-Tips-on-Writing-With-Jonathan-Funcke-1-1-300x201.webp 300w, https:\/\/twist-tales.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/5-Tips-on-Writing-With-Jonathan-Funcke-1-1-768x514.webp 768w, https:\/\/twist-tales.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/5-Tips-on-Writing-With-Jonathan-Funcke-1-1-18x12.webp 18w, https:\/\/twist-tales.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/5-Tips-on-Writing-With-Jonathan-Funcke-1-1-jpg.webp 1256w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-ff38f43 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"ff38f43\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Some stories are incredible, whereas others are utterly forgettable. Why?<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I suspect the simple reason is that writers begin conceiving the most fun and exciting elements. The dramatic beginning and grand finale are usually the first established because they provide a pleasant overview of<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">the<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">journey. Still, at a cost<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">&#8230;<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">because sometimes our pesky characters don&#8217;t want to go that way once you start writing! And when we force them to, the audience suffers as a result.<\/span><\/p><p><b>Side note:<\/b><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you reach a point where your characters start making their own choices despite your objectives, then you&#8217;ve done a fantastic job developing them. Celebrate the milestone.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I formed Domino Storytelling as a way to alleviate the grinding plot problem.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Try to<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">describe your story as a series of cascading events rather than steps. Replace the phrase &#8220;<\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">And then&#8230;<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">&#8221; with &#8220;<\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Resulting in&#8230;<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">&#8221; and you&#8217;ll immediately notice contrivances and weaknesses in your plot. Domino storytelling reframes the flow of actions as a consequence of everything that happened before, creating a natural and believable conclusion. As a result, your story becomes memorable since you can replay the chain reaction in your mind.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You may have to rewrite entire sections, but it&#8217;s worth it because when the flow of your story is<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">true<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">to the heart of your cast, it leads to even more excellent outcomes than if you had stuck to the initial ideas and forced your cast to reach them. Harking back to setups and payoffs, the clashing desires of the cast and their struggles toward them are some of the most powerful hooks you can use.<\/span><\/p><p><b>TLDR<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">:<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A plot may be a series of events, but the heart behind actions makes a story memorable, thus a great plot are actually reactions.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-c037986 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"c037986\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Effective World-Building Strategies<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div data-particle_enable=\"false\" data-particle-mobile-disabled=\"false\" class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-762c276 e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"762c276\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-65bfb4c elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"65bfb4c\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Know when to stop. Seriously stop.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Creating a mythology for your world can be enticing and fun, but it isn&#8217;t very sensible if the story you&#8217;re writing never uses it. Time is a precious resource.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Worldbuilding can be a sweet trap that keeps writers occupied for years without achieving much of anything. I&#8217;m just as guilty of this. Understand your story&#8217;s needs and how the world will support them. That&#8217;s it. The world must make sense to you as the writer, but not every tiny detail needs to be created for a lore document no one will ever read. That&#8217;s simply busy work and procrastination. Lost time that could have been spent on the story your audience will read. Remember, a story is about the heart of your cast, not the number of tiles in a long-lost kingdom&#8217;s royal bath chambers!<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-23faae9 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"23faae9\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Techniques for Character Development<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-a48b2f6 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"a48b2f6\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1024\" height=\"685\" src=\"https:\/\/twist-tales.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/5-Tips-on-Writing-With-Jonathan-Funcke-2-1024x685.webp\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-19152\" alt=\"5 Tips on Writing: With Jonathan Funcke\" srcset=\"https:\/\/twist-tales.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/5-Tips-on-Writing-With-Jonathan-Funcke-2-1024x685.webp 1024w, https:\/\/twist-tales.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/5-Tips-on-Writing-With-Jonathan-Funcke-2-300x201.webp 300w, https:\/\/twist-tales.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/5-Tips-on-Writing-With-Jonathan-Funcke-2-768x514.webp 768w, https:\/\/twist-tales.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/5-Tips-on-Writing-With-Jonathan-Funcke-2-18x12.webp 18w, https:\/\/twist-tales.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/5-Tips-on-Writing-With-Jonathan-Funcke-2-jpg.webp 1256w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-e28d3dc elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"e28d3dc\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The amount of change must be in proportion to the severity of the incident. A vile murderer cannot be believably redeemed after stubbing their toe, nor can your protagonist become a hero by walking to the conclusion with barely an inconvenience. When it comes to character development, you must understand the core of the character&#8217;s motivations before the incident and how the incident will influence their actions moving forward. Remember, with the domino storytelling, every action causes a reaction; this also applies to character development.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">One more quick tip: Necessity is a powerful tool but can rob a character&#8217;s agency if overused.
