{Circles of Fiction}[29th August 1990]

[Redbook7:270][19900829:1122]{Circles of Fiction}[29th August 1990]

‘... Remember your stories will be better if the Key Characters are strong in will and most active in resisting the obstacles put up between them and their purpose. The beginner tends to let the Key Character be too weak and passive in his or her response to obstacles, so losing the reader’s interest.’*


ie Stories should be of the O[uter] C[ircle] not the I[nner] C[ircle]. Is this why my longer fictions don’t get published?



*– WSCC,** BP 5-7
