🏂 Story Development Template
This dashboard is intended for writers seeking a storyboard planning template and dashboard in Notion. Every stage of story development included. I didn't want to make it too robust, however I managed to go a little overboard - creating a total of 8 templates (3 major templates and 5 sub-templates available upon duplication). A story dashboard brings all my elements together into a rather minimal workspace.
World Building
Start the writing process with a full-scale world builder if applicable. Plan things like:
World Biology
World Culture
World Economy
Daily Life
The Government
Fantasy & Myths
War & Conflict
Geography
Plot Planning
Get into the nitty gritty of the story with a plot planning map with the following templates:
Mind Map
A quick mind dump exposition-to-climax-to-resolution format to get the major ideas of a story down.
Beat Sheet
A similar mind dump approach to Mind Map, only story details, sub-events and motives are jotted down as well.
Free Write Synopsis
A free write template for those not interested in the extra bells and whistles. Summary & Themes bars included.
Story Event Construction & Character Development
Included is a next step option with Plot Roadmap for writers more comfortable with robust outlining than free-writing. I constructed two different template options here and a character development database as well:

Included in character development database:
Name
Gender
