Lauritzen Story Arc
Stop staring at a blank page. Start building your story.
Lauritzen Story Arc is the ultimate creative companion for novelists, screenwriters, and storytellers. Whether you are crafting a sprawling fantasy epic or a tight, punchy screenplay, Story Arc provides the structural framework you need to keep your narrative on track.
Plan, structure, and master your story
Outlining, story health, and thread tracking — everything your narrative needs to stay on track.
Structure your success
Don’t reinvent the wheel. Use industry-proven templates like The Hero’s Journey, Save the Cat, or the Story Circle — then switch seamlessly between a traditional vertical outline and a modern, visual card-based column view.
Plan with precision
Whether you’re writing a novel or a screenplay, see exactly where your story stands with the Story Health engine, which highlights underdeveloped threads, pacing gaps, and missing payoffs.
Master your threads
Keep your subplots, character arcs, and thematic elements organized. Assign nodes to custom color-coded threads and use the visual development map to see how your subplots weave through your narrative.
