To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Of course, these different facets can’t be completely separated, for a character’s inner values determine what the character wants, and vice versa. The truths you have discovered about your character(s) through Personalizing will play an important role here. Through the use of Action Objectives you will learn how the unique aspects of your characters can help plot your novel.In An Actor Prepares, Stanislavsky talks about breaking down a play into smaller units or “Action Objectives” that guide t...he actor on a course toward a character’s overall “super-objective.” This super-objective is the specific goal for which the character strives throughout the story as a whole. In other words, it’s what the character Wants, with a capital W. Stanislavsky noted that any part of the play that did not relate to the super-objective would stand out as superfluous or wrong. Therefore, the better written the play, the stronger the pull of its super-objective.The same principle is true for novels. The Super-Objective As The Character’s Overall Desire Before we examine our adaptation of Action Objectives for individual scenes, we first need to look at this concept of the super-objective, just as a contractor must review the plans for a house before beginning to build. The super-objective, or overall Desire, of a characterprovides the foundation for Action Objectivesin individual scenes. The adaptation of this super-objective concept for novelists has led me to a story-building process I call the Four Ds.
