Analyze Story Structure
Purpose
Perform comprehensive structural analysis of a narrative work to identify strengths, weaknesses, and improvement opportunities.
Process
1. Identify Structure Type
- Three-act structure
- Five-act structure
- Hero's Journey
- Save the Cat beats
- Freytag's Pyramid
- Kishōtenketsu
- In medias res
- Non-linear/experimental
2. Map Key Points
- Opening: Hook, world establishment, character introduction
- Inciting Incident: What disrupts the status quo?
- Plot Point 1: What locks in the conflict?
- Midpoint: What reversal/revelation occurs?
- Plot Point 2: What raises stakes to maximum?
- Climax: How does central conflict resolve?
- Resolution: What new equilibrium emerges?
3. Analyze Pacing
- Scene length distribution
- Tension escalation curve
- Breather moment placement
- Action/reflection balance
- Chapter break effectiveness
4. Evaluate Setup/Payoff
- Track all setups (promises to reader)
- Verify each has satisfying payoff
- Identify orphaned setups
- Find unsupported payoffs
- Check Chekhov's guns
5. Assess Subplot Integration
- List all subplots
- Track intersection with main plot
- Evaluate resolution satisfaction
- Check thematic reinforcement
6. Generate Report
Create structural report including:
- Structure diagram
- Pacing chart
- Problem areas
- Suggested fixes
- Alternative structures
Output
Comprehensive structural analysis with actionable recommendations
