THE ULTIMATE BOOK OUTLINER (FOR GOOGLE SHEETS)

Effectively Outline Your Book from Start to Finish!

My specially curated sheets help guide you through the synopsis and overview of your book. You can explore thematic overviews, goals, motives, character growth, stakes, and structure all in one place. 

 

Insert Your Book Cover!

Have a cover for your book? Insert your cover into the DASHBOARD tab. All covers should be 2:3 aspect ratio (portrait/vertical).

 

Create a Custom Character List!

Create a list of up to eighty (80) named characters and use this list for dynamic dropdown lists throughout your Outliner.

Use the MELEVATE  nine-beat structure to help section your book into workable chunks. Beats include:

 

• The Opener
• The Inciting Incident/Catalyst
• The Stakes
• Motivation/Goal
• Intro to Conflict
• Main Conflict
• Rising Action/Climax
• Resolution
• The Ending

 

Plan and Outline Over One Hundred Scenes!

Plan up to one hundred and twenty (120) scenes! That’s enough space for an entire 90,000-word novel! 

 

Select Scene Type, Scene Arc, and Scene Beats!

Choose from an extensive list to help you narrow down each of your scenes. Select your scene type, scene arc, and scene beats from a drop-down list. 

 

Outline Character Subplots!

Generate subplot arcs for up to six (6) unique characters in your book. Specify which subplot belongs to which character using the dropdown list. 

 

Plan Your Book’s Format and Marketing Strategy!

Ready to publish? The Book Outliner has a special section for you to plan the formatting and marketing of your novel. Check the Front and Back Matter pages of your book, generate tropes, create a list of keywords, and much more.
