Structuring a story

.

Chapter 2 in How to Use Storytelling in Your Academic Writing, 2025, pp 7-20 from Edward Elgar Publishing

Abstract: In this chapter I focus on applying the five-act storytelling structure from drama, captured in Freytag’s Pyramid, to structuring your research story. I also discuss how characters, theme and storylines contribute to the storytelling structure of your academic writing, and the difference between plot-driven and situation-driven stories.
