Story Arc and Character Arc

Details

Greetings fellow writers!

The subject for our meeting on July 10th is story arc versus character arc.

DEFINITION:
A story arc or narrative arc is the path of the overall story, while a character arc is the path a specific character takes during that story. The story arc is external, and happens to all of the characters, while a character arc is internal, and happens to one person.

DISCUSSION:
Think of a favorite movie or TV series and describe the character
arc versus the story arc.

We hope to see everyone on Saturday and we look forward to a
lively discussion. Don’t worry if nothing comes to mind, we still
want you to attend the meeting!
