SWRT 287 | Crafting Character Arcs
Manage episode 418806321 series 1445994
This week on the Story Works Round Table, Alida and Kathryn talk about creating character arcs. Most characters won't utterly transform from villain to hero, like our friend Scrooge, but shift needs to happen. Our character and plot arcs are married. The internal character arc is played out in the external plot arc. Identifying your character's shift is a great way to engineer your arc.
Happy New Year! We'll see you in 2024!
