My name is Abbie Emmons I teach writers how to make their stories matter by harnessing the power and psychology of storytelling, transforming their ideas into a masterpiece, and creating a lifestyle that makes their author dreams come true.

Story isn’t about “what happens” — it’s about how what happens affects and transforms the characters. I believe that there is an exact science (a recipe, if you will) behind a perfect story. And if you know what ingredients you need, you can create your own perfect story with ease and confidence. That’s what we talk about every week on this channel – and if it’s something you’re into, be sure to subscribe and join this com

    "There is a thin line between love and hate, every time you cross the line I'll pull you back" "From which side of the line?"
  • "Choose your last words wisely," sneered the villain, holding a knife to the hero's throat. The hero shakily lifted their head with tears in their eyes. "I love you."

    "It's easy to mistake true hatred for true love. They both leave you in agony; trading your last breath to someone undeserving of your attention."

    When you know your character is NOT supposed to end up with the villain but a part of you can't help letting a fanfic of your own writing live rent free in your head

    "You can do anything you want in my castle. There's only one rule: don't fall in love with me," he said. "Love? You killed my family, imprisoned my people, took away everything I cared about, and are keeping me in a prison." "Wrong. Your family was using you, your people were plotting your death, and you cared about everyone except yourself. This is not a prison, it's my way of making sure you stay out of it all." She opened her mouth to protest, but he cut her off. "So do your best. But don't fall in love with me." Then he turned and left her in the lavishly decorated room.
  • "I... I don't understand. After everything I did for them, I did everything they asked me to do. I protected them. I care about them. I shared my happiness and problems with them. And yet, they turned their backs on me when I made a simple mistake." "No. They ordered you to kill. To destroy. To create chaos. They manipulated and twisted your will, and turned into a weapon. They slashed their road toward power and then, when they got everything they wanted and even more, they tossed you aside like a puppet that outdated it's usefulness. Nothing less and nothing more." "It's that what I was to them, this whole time? Just a mere pawn on their game? To think, to discover that I was nothing for them. --- What I have been doing with my life?" "Now. Now. Sshhh Don't waste your tears on these fools, dear. Not everything is lost. Me, on the other hand, can help you without expecting anything on return. Well, only ONE thing I want from you. Your... support." "How I know you won't backstab me when the choice arise?" "Simple, because true friends stab you in the front. Quick and painless."
  • I’m not writing romance but my character has a forbidden friendship with someone so this is perfect!

    ,,I was once a hero too…” She said while staring into his eyes. She was far from him, he was armed and she weapon less, yet he still felt threatened in her presence. ,,I shot, stabbed, poisoned hundreds of their soldiers… I was willing to do anything for our kingdom. That’s how loyal I was.” Her words sent shivers down his spine. He knew what she was capable of. He saw what she was capable of. ,,So loyal that you turned on us and started killing us instead?” He said ironically. His furrowed brows created wrinkles on his forehead and his jaw was clenched. Her lips turned into creepy smile. ,,Is that what they told you?” She laughed. ,,That I was a psychopath that just decided to kill everyone out of boredom?” She looked around, shaking her head in disbelief. ,,Did they also told you what they’ve done to me?” She lightly touched her scar on her collarbone. Her smile slowly disappeared from her face. She stepped forward, still keeping eye contact. He flinched and reached for his weapon. ,,How they’ve lied to me, hurt me…” Her voice was no longer calm. It was vulnerable, shaky. She was just a few steps in front of him. He took his gun out and aimed at her chest but she didn’t even flinch. ,, …how they killed all my friends and the person dearest to my heart?” She looked deeply into his eyes, searching for her answer. He didn’t break eye contact. He watched her emerald eyes reflect in the moonlight. It wasn’t until now that he noticed how sad they were. ,,They didn’t, right?” Her voice broke when she said those last words. She didn’t look like a monster, she didn’t have 6 heads, wings from shadow or belt made out of her enemies bones. She was just a girl, whose trust was broken one too many times. There was a moment of silence before she asked calmly: ,,Why aren’t you shooting?” ,,What?” He was caught off guard. ,,You can put a bullet in my heart and be the hero you so badly want to be. So why aren’t you shooting?” He stood there quietly, asking himself the same question.

    "Go on," I taunted him. "Slit my throat, baby boy." He was hesitating, it was just the two of us alone in the dark desolate night in the middle of the woods. No one would know he killed me, no one would know what happened. The young hero hesitated, his dagger at my throat. His eyes were looking for a sign, any sign of me begging for mercy. His dark eyes the started to travel down to my body, if I were to guess, he was scanning my body to see if I was armed, but found none. "Stop doing that," he looked back at me. "Doing what?" I chuckled, confused on what he was trying to say. "When you call me by that pet name... brings someone from my far memories back. And I'm guessing you just want to see me buckle under your spell." "As far as I know, I'm just as human as you are. I don't got anything on you," I dropped my hands beside me and he only pressed the dagger a little more. I could feel small droplets of my own blood coming from the small cut. His eyes looked for any sign of lying in my eyes, I looked at him straight in the eyes. I adored those eyes. The way it made my blood dance in my veins and how the adrenaline rushed to every inch of my body. "I hate you," he blurted out and I scoffed. "Of course you do-" His other hand that was pressing me against the tree the pulled me towards his tall figure and pulled me into an unexpected passionate kiss. I remember him, too bad he didn't remember me. But his body sure knows who I am. He stabbed the tree's trunk and cuffed my face with his now free hand. The kiss was rough yet soft, demanding and yet so gentle. He bit my bottom lip and I let out a soft moan, clearly enjoying his touch, how his body felt against mine and how his lips went down my neck and collarbone. I pulled his closer to me, one hand behind his head and the other one around his waist. He lightly pressed his lips against my neck, I knew he was feeling my pulse, his hot breath against my skin. "Who are you?" He asked. "Scratch that, what are you?" "You really don't remember me, huh? Maybe this will help you remember me a bit..." "What-" I pushed him off of me and he fell down backwards, tripping over a log and sitting with a shocked face. I took that chance to go on top of him and reminding him what we used to be. The memory of us flooded my mind and my lips met his this time. Kissing him with the same passion as before he lost his memory and they took him away from me. He wrapped his arms around my waist and kissed me back. Lips dancing together in sync and our temperature rising as we kept going. *This is as far as I'll go*

    Even as a kid, I always fell for the villains in movies and stuff instead of the heros. Is there any story/book that actually has this plot?
