Building Narrative Tension through Character Networks  

Imagine creating characters who share among them powerful, magnetic-like forces fuelled by needs and desires, knowledge and power. With a character network in a narrative ecosystem, the closer they are drawn together, the greater the dramatic tension. You’ll learn how to apply this technique to your own project with an instructor-led discussion and a writing exercise.
