Welcome to Module Five! Our focus is on obstacles and stakes, and we’ll be looking at other micro craft and story elements that make a book oh-so-bingeable.
If you haven’t listened to the Unlock lecture (top of the Binge homepage), please be sure to do that before you turn to this module. There is also an Unlock Workbook, but it’s okay to wait to dive into that until after you finish your Binge modules.
