Plan Your Novel Start to Finish: Beat Map, Character Dossiers & Scene Cards

A 26-page fill-in workbook that takes a novel from vague idea to drafting-ready plan — and then through revision. No theory padding: every page is something you write on.

What’s inside:

• Premise Lab — a logline formula with worked examples from Pride and Prejudice, Frankenstein, and The Count of Monte Cristo, plus an 8-question stress test that finds the soft spots in your idea before page 100 does.
• The Beat Map — three acts, nine blocks, 27 beats, each with a blunt one-line explanation of the job it does and lines to fill in your version.
• Character Dossiers — four two-page sheets covering want vs. need, misbelief, the wound behind it, and arc waypoints keyed to specific beats.
• Scene Cards — eight goal / conflict / disaster / sequel cards to plan each drafting session. Print more as you go.
• World & Continuity Log — names, places, and a timeline grid so your manuscript stops contradicting itself.
• Revision Checklists — three separate passes (structural, scene, line) with specific checks, like whether your midpoint turns the protagonist from reactive to proactive.
• A “When You’re Stuck” diagnostic — one page that finds the missing ingredient behind most blocks.

Works for plotters and reformed pantsers alike. Plan in pencil; the workbook does not judge.
