Take your favorite story and examine which of the four methods the author uses to connect the plot goal to the protagonist’s thematic development. Then briefly examine how the author was already weaving this unity of theme & plot throughout the novel, and post your results here!

Decide how your character’s story goal is dependent on his/her thematic development. Then decide how each of the five points of the character arc will relate to the story’s plot. Finally, post your results here!

@Winter-Rose ha! Not at all. My pleasure. 😀

Yes. I haven’t written up a formula for that one yet.

Yep, there’s also the disillusionment arc. I think that covers all the arcs.

@Winter-Rose nope, looks good. I would make the distinction that for a flat arc, the arc is actually the plot/surroundings changing to fit the truth of the character, not the other way around as it is with the other arcs.

@Daeus *chokes* Hilarious. *tries not to split her side laughing* Perhaps once I do a deeper study of that I shall figure out what the disparity is between the two and get it taken care of.
For now, you guys can call it whatever you want. -

@kate-flournoy That makes it worse. Rev 3:16 “So then, because you are lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will vomit you out of My mouth.”

@dragon-snapper Pretty much what Kate said. Basically, every character has some sort of character. Generally though, that changes over the course of the story. Every character’s change is different, but the idea is that they can all be classified into different archetypes. Each of these archetypes is what we call a character arc and studying these…[Read more]

@Mark-Kamibaya hey, no rush.

@Sierra-R *sits and silently judges you*
