How It Works
The Story Spine breaks storytelling into a simple sequence of prompts. You’ll move through each section step by step.
Each answer you provide builds your story in a structured way.
You don’t need to prepare anything in advance. Just respond to each prompt as clearly and honestly as you can.
Lantern Progress Indicator
As you complete each section of the Story Spine, a lantern indicator will gradually light up.
This is a visual way to show your progress:
-
Early sections: lantern is dim
-
Midway: lantern becomes partially lit
-
Completed story: lantern is fully lit
The purpose is to give you a simple sense of progress as you move through the tool.
Coaching Prompts
Throughout the process, you will see optional coaching prompts.
These are short guidance questions designed to help you:
-
clarify your thinking
-
add missing context
-
strengthen your story structure
They are optional. You can use them or continue without them.
What You’ll Be Working Through:
The CreateAStory follows a basic structure:
-
The starting situation
-
The event or change that happened
-
The goal or intention
-
What actions took place
-
The outcome
-
What you learned or realized
Each section builds on the one before it.
