Using Storyboon
A story streak shows how many days in a row you've completed a writing lesson. Keep your streak alive by completing at least one lesson each day. The longer your streak, the more bonus points you earn! If you miss a day, don't worry - you can use a Streak Freeze to protect it.
Earn points (called Story Points) by completing lessons, giving feedback, and maintaining your streak. Level up to unlock new story types and writing tools. Each level requires more points than the last, but also brings bigger rewards!
Start with the "Story Basics" path. This introduces core concepts like character, plot, and setting through bite-sized lessons. Complete each lesson to unlock the next one. Don't rush - take time to practice and experiment with each new skill.
- Quick Writes: 5-minute writing exercises
- Story Building: Learn and practice specific techniques
- Peer Reviews: Give and receive feedback
- Story Challenges: Timed writing with specific goals
- World Building: Create detailed story settings
