Truby's method

Truby’s method is a storytelling framework that guides writers in crafting compelling, well-structured narratives. It emphasizes creating deep, authentic characters with clear desires and conflicts, and developing a story that revolves around their goals. Truby breaks down storytelling into interconnected elements such as moral dilemmas, theme, and character relationships, ensuring each part contributes to a cohesive and meaningful story. The method encourages planning from the inside out—focusing on character motivation before plot—resulting in narratives that are emotionally engaging, logically consistent, and resonate with universal human truths.
