Plot Points and Hero's Journey Revisited

Today I found this excellent diagram showing the plot points - I like this because Daniel has plotted the internal journey along the Hero's journey. This would be useful for any screen writer.

Pixar's 22 Rules of Storytelling

I didn't know about this until a few days ago a screen writer friend told about this:

And then I found these:

More Writing Resources

I found some nice resources that can help any writer. Check out the following - they seem interesting:

• http://writingwhilethericeboils.blogspot.com/2011/11/writing-roulette-all-generators-youd.html
• http://writingwhilethericeboils.blogspot.com/2011/11/writing-roulette-all-generators-youd_22.html

While that blog post collects various generators some links seem to be broken. I have managed to list a few links here for convenience:

• Plot suggestions
• Sticky situations generator
• Random Story Generator - for some reason this didn't work for me; probably I have to enable AxtiveX controls 
• Character's physical characteristics generator
• Motive generator
• Character quirk generator
• Name generator
• City map generator

• All generators in one
• Another collection of generators
• Yet another generator
• Some more generators

Now for some links that are very different from the above:
