Ultimate Story Planner

Hi everyone! I'm an artist and writer who has planned a huge amount of stories and comics over the years, and I've encountered a bunch of problems during that massive planning and organization phase (and beyond), such as: ✏ I thought up so many interesting scenes, but there's nowhere to put them ✏ Can't track whether or not certain pieces of lore have already been explored in the story; did I write about this already? ✏ There's no easy way to tell if there are any plot holes or lore aspects that need figuring out ✏ Naming things is hard! It's hard to talk about things without a name, and then to go back and change every instance of it afterwards ✏ There aren't any good, or tightly coupled way to track progress ✏ I want readers, but have no established fanbase and no marketing strategy So I tried a bunch of things; put in a bunch of research for everything, from planning to production to promotional strategies--and put them all into this template to solve the aforementioned problems, and to let the creator life flourish. While there are templates for writers and novelists out there, one thing I've noticed is that none of them are for comics! Creating an art-filled story of any kind is a huge amount of work; it takes perhaps double the amount of planning and organization for it to all be able to come together. Properly and cleanly laying things out is essential. And for all this work, it is important to think beyond the story, and come up with ways to get it out there--potentially even turning it into a livelihood. This template will allow great organization to come naturally, and will give you the space and resources to learn and brainstorm about every aspect that is important to your work. I've filled it up with a wealth of sample content, guides, and resources to make this process easier than ever. I hope you'll find this template helpful! I look forward to seeing what you can create with it.
