Super Structure represents over two decades of research on what makes a novel or screenplay entertaining, commercial, original, and irresistible. Contrary to what some may think, structure is not a nasty inhibitor of creativity. Quite the opposite. Properly understood and utilized, structure is what translates story into a form audiences are wired to receive it.

A mystery with heart
- By Sally-Ann Andrew on 22-03-2020
Publisher's Summary
Back in his hometown of Sugar House, running his family's board game shop and cafe, Ben Rosencrantz just can't seem to get his life to pass go, much less collect $200. Once he was a happily married English professor in Seattle. Now he's a divorced caregiver, looking after his ill father and a Chihuahua named Beans while still figuring out the rules of retail management. At least the town has become more LGBTQ+ friendly than when Ben was a teenager—and that flower shop owner, Ezra McCaslin, enjoys flirting with him.
But despite his usual clientele of gamers, Ben is barely earning enough to keep the store running and stay on top of his father's medical bills. Then a local toy and game collector named Clive offers him a winning strategy—to purchase a turn-of-the-twentieth-century edition of The Landlord's Game, the realty and taxation game that inspired Monopoly, at a tenth of the rare edition's true value. Suspicious of Clive's shady, low-priced deal, Ben turns the offer down.
Then Clive turns up dead at the front door of Ben's shop and a backpack full of $100 bills appears on his doorstep. Now Ben is the #1 suspect in Clive's death, and unless he and Ezra can prove his innocence and find the real killer, he'll go to jail for murder—and no amount of double dice rolls will set him free . . .
Critic Reviews
"Robert Mac Minshew gives a fun, upbeat performance of this queer cozy mystery set in Salt Lake City.... Minshew narrates with a light touch that works well with the book's nerdy humor and lighthearted tone. Ben sounds just like a stressed-out 30-something business owner.... He captures the many personalities that make up the local gaming community." (AudioFile)

a sweet "quosy" mystery
This story introduces an interesting cast of characters (including Beans the chihuahua) and a unique real-world setting (Salt Lake City). Compelled me to pull out a board game or two as well 😄.
