The Three Act Structure I've written before about story structure and about how I structure my own stories, but I thought that I would talk a little bit about another useful (if a bit more complicated) way of structuring your story elements, the Three Act Structure. In basic terms, the Three Act Structure is separated into the three main parts of a story. The beginning - or act one, the middle - or act 2 and the end - or act 3. You can use these simple parts as a basic outline, describing what you expect to happen in those main parts of your story, but going further, and complicating matters more, you can add in the other elements which are a sort of step by step guide in a way.
