Thank you Grant. I love your writing and this this framework… and will now have to examine my latest writing to see how it lines up with these four pillars of good story. Again… thank you.

Perfect timing! Yes - I tried to write my book about Lydia and courage like a thesis (I am a scientist) at first. Then I learned about story....I nerded out on it a lot and have started using it.
