Who is telling your story? Who are they telling it to? Why are they telling it?

This is the Narrative Device!

The Narrative Device consists of three main components:

Author: The Author is someone who is capable of telling the POP premise as a story to shed light on the problem another person has.
SAM: The Single Audience Member is a person with a problem related to the one the protagonist faces in the POP premise.
Problem: A specific problem that the POP premise can shed light on.
