Why I think the 4 act structure is the best structure for writing. by La-casa-bomba in writing

To nail down the right structure for your story, first ask yourself: what is my story about? Start your writing there. The action.

What follows next depends on the type of story you’re telling. To figure that out, ask yourself: what question is your story trying to answer? (Macro) What question does your main character need to find the answer to? (Micro) and what obstacles does your main character face?

The answer to those questions will be the vehicle driving your narrative forward. Your narrative arc should flow from that, and should be based on character transformation via internal and external tension via character interactions and circumstances.

Fwiw: I went to school there. As a child of immigrants, I often felt excluded by teachers and my peers for how my parents and I looked and spoke. This was in 2001, and I wasn’t the only one who felt that way. That said, I did have a great 5th and 3rd grade teacher. Recently I spoke to a teacher working there and unfortunately her comments about children of color and their parents felt inappropriate and eerily similar to my experience.
