Make ’em laugh, make ’em cry, make ’em wait. Contradiction between narrative drive and story suspense builds tension to the breaking point of emotional explosion.

@StoryGridRT Okay, thank you, guys, Profusely (note capitalization, yes, I am that thankful!), for your podcasts on the Virgin's Promise story construct. Discussion is giving me new purchase on my revision. Something had been missing in evaluating MS w/ Hero's Journey.

Story is metaphor for life, and to be alive is to be in seemingly perpetual conflict.

Social Progression in your story means beginning intimately with only a few principal characters, but as the telling moves forward, allow their actions to ramify outward into the world around them.

The Roundtablers succumb to the selkie's song this week as we examine Song of the Sea, the 2014 animated Irish folktale for proof that a Hero's Journey and a Virgin's Promise arc can be successfully combined. @kimehudson storygrid.com/editor-roundta…
