Outlines, story structure, and the wonderful writing program Scrivener go together like ice cream and chocolate sprinkles. When you’re aware of your story’s structure as your writing your outline and first draft, the end product will be that much tighter and more powerful. That’s why I’m excited to be able to offer you a spiffy Scrivener template for outlining and structuring your novel, based on the principles of outlining and story structure I discuss in my books Outlining Your Novel, Structuring Your Novel, and Creating Character Arcs.
This template was created with the assistance of Stuart Norfolk.

After downloading the template onto your computer, make sure you copy/paste the files out of the zipped folder onto your computer before trying to open the template in Scrivener. Otherwise, the program won’t recognize the template has been installed. Double click on the KM Weiland Template.scrivx file to import it into Scrivener.
To get the template to show up in Scrivener as an option the next time you start a new project, you’ll need to save it as a template (File/Save As Template).
