2. Every other action paragraph must be written backwards. Execs alternate reading left-to-right with right-to-left.
3. Concept must be HOT! Must maintain at least 8 on Hellfire Meter with bonus Pitchfork Multiplier.
4. All character arcs must subtend an angle greater than pi radians.
5. It’s not an inciting incident, it’s an EXCITING incident. Explosion before page 10, NO EXCEPTIONS.
6. Three acts is boring. Please begin with a half-sequence, followed by eight quatrains, and conclude with a mondo-piece.
