Ways to heighten the beauty and impact of your writing. All starts here, comes before other items on list. What character wants will drive what character does. Pursue something that they either fail or prosper. Round character: moves internally, something happens to them, world is different, some new state of consciousness without transformation. Flat character: doesn"t have to change internally, Protagonist binds reader to story > don"t necessarily have to like them. Antagonist: they are often a person, nasty boss or loved one, hitman > forcing against something. Complex antagonists: more going on than just that person, system of inner belief. Very often wound on in internal battles. Natural can be quite indifferent (into the wild)
