Outline a Clear, Connected Novel in Four Weeks
If you’re over rewriting your novel without getting anywhere, let’s get you a story that connects so you can finally finish it.
^ Alexandra went through Story Milestones in just a few days. You don't need weeks and weeks to connect your story!
Tell me if you’ve ever…
Rewritten the same chapters over and over and then one more time
Read your scenes back and thought, this doesn’t even make sense
Jumped between random ideas that didn’t connect
Avoided your story for months because it felt too overwhelming
That's all about to change.
The problem is, most writing advice says:
don't worry if it's a mess!
just use a beat sheet!
struggling is just part of it!
But, in the meantime...
Years have gone, and you hate that your book still isn’t done
You feel like a failure when family members ask you about it
You’re starting to doubt whether you’ll ever hold a finished copy in your hands
And, at night, when it’s quiet, you wonder, maybe I’m just not good enough
But you ARE good enough.
After spending 10 years on two novels that felt impossible to finish, I threw my hands in the air and thought, there has GOT to be a better way.
And the more I talked with other writers, the more I realized we’re all hitting the same problems over and over.
So I created a better way.
One where you:
See your story come together in days, not months
Know your story works before you write 300 pages
Finally finish a story you’re really proud of
It's called...
The Story Milestones Method
And it’s helped 500+ writers go from feeling like they can’t do it to…literally doing it.
Take Marcella. She spent two years guessing what should happen in the middle. Three days into Story Milestones, she knew exactly what should happen.
You can too.
20 bite-size video lessons, a step-by-step workbook, lifetime access.
Here's how it works:
You start with your main character
Plot first = overwhelming.
You’re trying to connect dozens of moving pieces at once before you even know if the pieces belong there.
Character first = clear.
You’ll answer one question to know which ideas belong in your story and which ones don’t.
Then you connect them to 5 big milestones
Most stories fall apart because of too many ideas and too many directions.
These milestones give you a simple way to decide what happens next so you’re not guessing scene by scene (even if you’re writing multiple subplots or points of view).
(Think of it like figuring out your pit stops on a road trip, so you actually reach your destination.)
Then, you add detail to your story in layers (so you don’t burn out)
Instead of trying to figure out every detail right away,
you’ll layer them in so you can keep your momentum going and finish your draft in a year.
What's inside:
The Character Premise Method. The piece that makes your story finally click in days vs months
✔️The Story Milestones Method. Simplify how you plot and keep your story focused by connecting five specific plot points to your main character.
✔️ LIFETIME ACCESS to 20+ no-fluff, bingeable video lessons and a 40+ page workbook (plus any future updates)
Plus these bonuses:
[BONUS] Create a story idea that hooks readers immediately with the Story Starter Compass
[BONUS] My complete outlining checklists. Know everything you need to finish your novel this year

But what if you get stuck again?
Let’s say you’re working on the middle of your story.
You’re wondering what happens after the midpoint?
You’re not sure…
All you have to do is open up the midpoint lessons again
And answer the questions in your workbook.
You have clear, easy steps to take when you feel stuck so you don’t stay stuck for months.
If we haven't met, I'm Megan!
I'm a published author, professional writer, and writing coach.
And after 10 years of getting lost in my novels, I got really tired of how impossible it felt to finish one.
I was over advice telling me to just write a messy novel or plug ideas into a beat sheet and I’ll be set.
(I mean, if I could just do that, I’d have done it already!)
So I created a simple way for writers to see their stories connect faster without sacrificing quality.
And I turned it into my Story Milestones Method.
Frequently asked questions:
Absolutely! You don’t need any fancy writing experience or an MFA or anything.
Writers who have used Story Milestones have been teachers, truck drivers, stay-at-home parents, doctors, lawyers, film and tv professionals, you name it.
And many of them were working on their very first novel.
This is made for writers who care about their story, want to finish what they started, and are ready to finally feel good about it. Know what I'm sayin?
Not at all!
This course helps you build your story as you go.
All you need is a character (they don't have to be fully developed) and some ideas for scenes and the kind of story you'd like to tell (genre, tone, etc.)
Totally okay!
Most of my writers have at least some of their story already written.
Bring what you have, and these lessons will help you shape it into a complete, well-developed story.
It's all up to you! I've had writers plot their novels in a weekend, while others did it in a few weeks.
The lessons are short and focused (hairless cat level fluffy), so you can see your story come together quickly.
Oh—you also have lifetime access, so there's no rush!
Most outlining methods focus on plot points, which is why writers get stuck using them.
Story Milestones starts with your character and builds your plot around them.
It’s flexible, intuitive, and based on centuries-old storytelling principles that are rock-solid.
Yes, of course! This isn't a "one and done" thing.
The Story Milestones Method is a repeatable process you can use for every story you write without worrying your story will feel formulaic.
Each story will be as unique as your next main character, because you're learning to develop character-driven narratives, not fill in basic plot points in a beat sheet.
You can let another week, month, or year go by without seeing your story come together.
Or...
...you could have a clear, connected story in the next couple of weeks
(and actually feel excited about it again!)
The best part is, you don’t have to guess or figure it out on your own.
I’ll guide you through everything.
