A Sample of What You'll Uncover:
From Chapter 4: The Engine: Motivation, Wants, and Needs
The most important concept in this chapter... is the distinction between a character's Want and their Need.
The WANT is the Goal.
It is the external, tangible, Description-oriented objective... It drives the Description.
The NEED is the Truth.
It is the internal, often unconscious, psychological or emotional lesson your character must learn... It drives the character arc. A great story places these two things in conflict.
From Chapter 10: The Domino Effect: How Character Drives Description
The best stories are character-driven Descriptions. The Description happens because of who the characters are... Your character's flaw should be a minefield calibrated to their specific weaknesses. An impulsive character should make impulsive decisions that get them into trouble... The Description, therefore, is a chain reaction of your character's choices.
