All right, friends, this is your last chance to get your hands on the extra special pre-order bonuses that come with purchasing my new book, The Story Grade Masterwork Analysis Guide to Harry Potter and the sorcerer's stone.

As a very quick recap, I'm giving away a two-hour workshop

with me and Abigail K Perry, where we walk you

It's going to be super fun.

I'm also giving away a copy of my margin notes on the all-important midpoint scene of

book launch party so if all of that sounds like something you want, go to Savannah Gilboe.com forward slash

expire on August 4th. In Harry Potter and the sorceress stone, the global inciting incident, this is when Harry

learns he's a wizard and that someone named Lord Voldemort tried to kill him when he was a baby.

And also there's a spot for him at Hogwarts School

of Witchcraft and Wizardry,

where he can go to learn magic.

Now, a little caveat I want to point out here

is in the action beat that Sean Coyne wrote, the global inciting incident of an action story should usually be a life-threatening attack by the forces of antagonism, and in this case, we don't have one.
