I first became interested in structure as a songwriter. It’s even more pronounced in writing. I find it interesting how certain genres, such as romance and westerns, have templates (or recipes) that readers expect authors to follow.
i.e. Romance; boy meets girl, they fall in love, conflicts arise, they break up, they resolve their issues, happy ending. I realize there are multiple variations to this formula, but it’s a common thread we’ve all seen repeated a million times and never fails to please the audience.

Exactly. Every story is another version of an older story. For me, structure is accurate and a blessing. Thanks for adding a o the conversation.
