The three essential elements of a first chapter ⬇️ Look, you’ll never get ANY part of a draft right on the first try, and that’s ok! But you really got to nail that first chapter. It’s what hooks in readers, agents, yourself on the seventeenth round of edits…yeah, it’s pretty important. 🥲 Think yours is falling flat? Check for these key elements: ✅ Characters Not just names and faces but something to make the reader CARE about them and their story. ✅ Conflict I’m here for the DRAMA. Drop the conflict early on to hook me in. ✅ Next Steps WHERE is the story going from here? How does your character react to the conflict? Give the reader an indication of what’s coming next. One important note: I’d recommend using this checklist AFTER you’ve written the full draft and are circling back to edits. No double-dipping during the writing process here. If you’re reading because you’re starting a first draft, great! You’re ahead of the game…but don’t let the first chapter become a hurdle. Write it and move on. My page will still be here when it’s time for edits. 😉 Speaking of, hey there! I’m EG and I learned these hacks the hard way while teaching myself to write. Now I’m working on my fifth manuscript and am an Assistant Editor at a literary magazine. I taught myself how to do this and I hope to share some tips I wish I knew sooner with you. ☺️ Stick around in the comments for questions—and drop your beginning elements there too! I can’t wait to see what you’re working on 🫶🏻 #writingtips #writingadvice #writingtipsandtricks #advice #amwriting #firstchapter #firstline #firstpage #helpful #forwriters #writing #writingcommunity #writerlife

This was the biggest game changer for me! I had a big idea for a romantasy book but—as a first-time writer—I had absolutely no idea how to even get started🤯 Until I learned about the 7 Point Plot Structure! Then everything started to fit into place. Now I’m working on a chapter by chapter outline. And it feels so good to get my ideas all organized onto a page🥰 The Hook (0-2%): the opening scene of your story, introducing your main character and their world Plot Turn 1 (10-15%): a turning point that changes your protagonist’s world and sets in motion the events of the story (the inciting incident) Pinch Point 1 (30%): events in the story start to get crazier, often including setbacks and obstacles (the fun and games section) Midpoint (50%): a shift occurs within the main character through events around them or internal growth (who your character was before and after this moment) Pinch Point 2 (75%): the conflict increases and all Hope seems lost (the dark night of the soul moment) Plot Turn 2 (85-90%): the catalyst for the final act of the story where the main character will rise to the occasion and confront the main conflict Resolution (95-100%): the final moments of the story were the conflict is resolved and everything is tied up with a nice bow #firsttimewriter #romantasybooks #writingabook #outliningyournovel
