🛠 Tool #19: Monthly Narrative Arc Planner

Use this to map your monthly belief arc into weekly narrative loops. Each week becomes a mini-story that reveals, supports, and reinforces your larger message.
Month: [Insert Month]
Monthly Arc Title: The name of the emotional or strategic story for the month. (e.g., "The Fracture" — exposing the failure of performance marketing)
Primary Theme: A one-sentence narrative idea that anchors the month. (e.g., “Modern marketing forgot the audience.”)
Belief to Reinforce: What truth should this month embed? (e.g., “Commerce is built on connection. Not just conversion.”)
Tone Palette: Choose 2–3 emotional tones to define the voice of the month. (e.g., Seductive, Dangerous, Intelligent)
Narrative Gear Emphasis:
Architecture
Exposure
Emotion (Check the primary gear in focus this month)
Memory Marker to Echo: A core line you will repeat subtly across content this month. (e.g., “You don’t need more ads. You need belief.”)
