Do you write fiction? Are you a Panster or an Outliner/Planner?

A story teller deck will fill you with inspiration and ensure you never get stuck again.

If you are a Panster, use the cards to drive your story in directions you may have never thought of. The thrill of random plot changes and concepts make these an ideal tool for Panster writers.

If you like to plan or outline your story, you can use the cards to generate the various acts of your story in advance. While you are writing, use the verbs, nouns, adjectives, sight, sound, smell, etc to bring your story to life and to enhance your writing with a constant stream of ideas..

The Story Teller Deck is 54 cards, supplied as a 9-page PDF that you can print at home (6 cards per page). 

You can print them on lightweight card, or print on paper and put them into card sleeves for easier handling (2.5 inch x 3.5 inch).

Each card has:

  • Two action verbs
  • A concrete noun
  • An abstract noun
  • A writing genre
  • A prompt about what your character is thinking
  • A major plot twist
  • A plot turning point or scene description for 5 different types of writing (Action, Tension, Mystery, A Personal event, and a Social event)
