Writing - part xx558 Writing a Novel, Still More Turning Overall Plots into the Protagonist

13 April 2021, Writing - part xx558 Writing a Novel, Still More Turning Overall Plots into the Protagonist

Announcement: Delay, my new novels can be seen on the internet, but my primary publisher has gone out of business—they couldn’t succeed in the past business and publishing environment.  I’ll keep you informed, but I need a new publisher.  More information can be found at www.ancientlight.com.  Check out my novels—I think you’ll really enjoy them.

Introduction: I wrote the novel Aksinya: Enchantment and the Daemon. This was my 21st novel and through this blog, I gave you the entire novel in installments that included commentary on the writing. In the commentary, in addition to other general information on writing, I explained, how the novel was constructed, the metaphors and symbols in it, the writing techniques and tricks I used, and the way I built the scenes. You can look back through this blog and read the entire novel beginning with http://www.pilotlion.blogspot.com/2010/10/new-novel-part-3-girl-and-demon.html.

I’m using this novel as an example of how I produce, market, and eventually (we hope) get a novel published. I’ll keep you informed along the way.

Today’s Blog: To see the steps in the publication process, visit my writing websites http://www.sisteroflight.com/.

The four plus one basic rules I employ when writing:

1. Don’t confuse your readers.

2. Entertain your readers.

3. Ground your readers in the writing.

4. Don’t show (or tell) everything.

     4a. Show what can be seen, heard, felt, smelled, and tasted on the stage of the novel.

5. Immerse yourself in the world of your writing.

These are the steps I use to write a novel including the five discrete parts of a novel:

 

1.      Design the initial scene

2.      Develop a theme statement (initial setting, protagonist, protagonist’s helper or antagonist, action statement)

a.      Research as required

b.      Develop the initial setting

c.      Develop the characters

d.      Identify the telic flaw (internal and external)

3.      Write the initial scene (identify the output: implied setting, implied characters, implied action movement)

4.      Write the next scene(s) to the climax (rising action)

5.      Write the climax scene

6.      Write the falling action scene(s)

7.      Write the dénouement scene

I finished writing my 29th novel, working title, Detective, potential title Blue Rose: Enchantment and the Detective.  The theme statement is: Lady Azure Rose Wishart, the Chancellor of the Fae, supernatural detective, and all around dangerous girl, finds love, solves cases, breaks heads, and plays golf.  

Here is the cover proposal for Blue Rose: Enchantment and the Detective



Cover Proposal

The most important scene in any novel is the initial scene, but eventually, you have to move to the rising action. I am continuing to write on my 30th novel, working title Red Sonja.  I finished my 29th novel, working title Detective.  I’m planning to start on number 31, working title Shifter

How to begin a novel.  Number one thought, we need an entertaining idea.  I usually encapsulate such an idea with a theme statement.  Since I’m writing a new novel, we need a new theme statement.  Here is an initial cut.

 

For novel 30:  Red Sonja, a Soviet spy, infiltrates the X-plane programs at Edwards AFB as a test pilot’s administrative clerk, learns about freedom, and is redeemed.

 

For novel 31:  Deirdre and Sorcha are redirected to French finishing school where they discover difficult mysteries, people, and events. 

 

Here is the scene development outline:

 

1. Scene input (comes from the previous scene output or is an initial scene)

2. Write the scene setting (place, time, stuff, and characters)

3. Imagine the output, creative elements, plot, telic flaw resolution (climax) and develop the tension and release.

4. Write the scene using the output and creative elements to build the tension.

5. Write the release

6. Write the kicker

          

Today:  Why don’t we go back to the basics and just writing a novel?  I can tell you what I do, and show you how I go about putting a novel together.  We can start with developing an idea then move into the details of the writing. 

 

To start a novel, I picture an initial scene.  I may start from a protagonist or just launch into mental development of an initial scene.  I get the idea for an initial scene from all kinds of sources.  To help get the creative juices flowing, let’s look at the initial scene. 

 

1.      Meeting between the protagonist and the antagonist or the protagonist’s helper

2.      Action point in the plot

3.      Buildup to an exciting scene

4.      Indirect introduction of the protagonist

 

Ideas.  We need ideas.  Ideas allow us to figure out the protagonist and the telic flaw.  Ideas don’t come fully armed from the mind of Zeus.  We need to cultivate ideas. 

 

1.      Read novels. 

2.      Fill your mind with good stuff—basically the stuff you want to write about. 

3.      Figure out what will build ideas in your mind and what will kill ideas in your mind.

4.      Study.

5.      Teach. 

6.      Make the catharsis. 

7.      Write.

 

The development of ideas is based on study and research, but it is also based on creativity.  Creativity is the extrapolation of older ideas to form new ones or to present old ideas in a new form.  It is a reflection of something new created with ties to the history, science, and logic (the intellect).  Creativity requires consuming, thinking, and producing.

 

If we have filled our mind with all kinds of information and ideas, we are ready to become creative.  Creativity means the extrapolation of older ideas to form new ones or to present old ideas in a new form.  Literally, we are seeing the world in a new way, or actually, we are seeing some part of the world in a new way. 

 

I’ve worked through creativity and the protagonist.  The ultimate point is that if you properly develop your protagonist, you have created your novel.  This moves us on to plots and initial scenes.  As I noted, if you have a protagonist, you have a novel.  The reason is that a protagonist comes with a telic flaw, and a telic flaw provides a plot and theme.  If you have a protagonist, that gives you a telic flaw, a plot, and a theme.  I will also argue this gives you an initial scene as well. 

 

So, we worked extensively on the protagonist.  I gave you many examples great, bad, and average.  Most of these were from classics, but I also used my own novels and protagonists as examples.  Here’s my plan.

 

1.      The protagonist comes with a telic flaw – the telic flaw isn’t necessarily a flaw in the protagonist, but rather a flaw in the world of the protagonist that only the Romantic protagonist can resolve.

2.      The telic flaw determines the plot.

3.      The telic flaw determines the theme.

4.      The telic flaw and the protagonist determines the initial scene.

5.      The protagonist and the telic flaw determines the initial setting.

6.      Plot examples from great classic plots.

7.      Plot examples from mediocre classic plots.

8.      Plot examples from my novels.

9.      Creativity and the telic flaw and plots.

10.  Writer’s block as a problem of continuing the plot.

 

Every great or good protagonist comes with their own telic flaw.  I showed how this worked with my own writing and novels.  Let’s go over it in terms of the plot.

 

This is all about the telic flaw.  Every protagonist and every novel must come with a telic flaw.  They are the same telic flaw.  That telic flaw can be external, internal or both.

 

We found that a self-discovery telic flaw or a personal success telic flaw can potentially take a generic plot.  We should be able to get an idea for the plot purely from the protagonist, telic flaw and setting.  All of these are interlaced and bring us our plot.

 

For a great plot, the resolution of the telic flaw has to be a surprise to the protagonist and to the reader.  This is both the measure and the goal.  As I noted before, for a great plot, the author needs to make the telic flaw resolution appear to be impossible, but then it happens.  There is much more to this.  Here’s the list of plots I’ve looked at already:

 

Redemption:  the protagonist must make an internal or external change to resolve the telic flaw. This is the major style of most great modern plots.

 

Revelation:  the novel reveals portions of the life, experiences, and ideas of the protagonist in a cohesive and serial fashion from the initial scene to the climax and telic flaw resolution.

 

Achievement:  the novel is characterized by a goal that the protagonist must achieve to resolve the telic flaw. 

 

I evaluated the list of plots and categorized them according to the following scale:

 

Overall (o) – These are the three overall plots we defined above: redemption, achievement, and revelation.

 

Achievement (a) – There are plots that fall under the idea of the achievement plot. 

 

Quality (q) – These are plots based on a personal or character quality.

 

Setting (s) – These are plots based on a setting.

 

Item (i) – These are plots based on an item.

 

All of the plots we looked at fall into one of these five.  Let’s do that:

13.  Prison (s) – 2 – 2%

 

Item (i)

1.      Article (i) – 1e, 46 – 42%

 

This time, let’s start with the plots that we found define the protagonist, and then determine a telic flaw from that.  We will develop a protagonist and a telic flaw from archetype plots.      

 

I’ve never tried this before but is sounds interesting.  Perhaps I’ll determine a protagonist with a telic flaw I want to write about. 

 

I guess I should approach this in as logical a fashion as possible.  So, I guess we should start with the overall plots.  Here’s the list. 

 

Overall (o)

1.      Redemption (o) – 17i, 7e, 23ei, 8 – 49%

2.      Revelation (o) –2e, 64, 1i – 60%

3.      Achievement (o) – 16e, 19ei, 4i, 43 – 73%

 

Perhaps one method would be to write a list of the various types of plots.  For example, let’s start with redemption.  What things might a person be redeemed from.  Let’s realize our list won’t be comprehensive.  There are possibly millions of things a person could be redeemed from, but let’s make some kind of list.  I’ll put down a whole bunch of things—even ones I’m not very interested in:

 

Redemption:

1.      From some kind of life of sin or immorality – this is a classic redemption.  This might include criminality, murder, stealing, adultery, rape, pornography, prostitution, general immorality, and all.  This is actually a classical type of redemption, but it isn’t all there is.

2.      From some kind of curse – this is a type of redemption found in the classics.  This is one of my favorites to use.  Here’s some specifics.  How about from being a vampire, a werewolf, a family curse, a specific curse, from magic use, from some other esoteric physical belief.  I’ll leave that to your imagination.  I can think of some things, but it might get ugly.  We’ll here is an example, in the days of Galileo much of the world believed in an terra-centric (earth-centric) solar system (universe).  Galileo observed the solar system was helio-centric (the earth revolved around the sun).  Such a redemption from a false belief to a true scientific belief, could be seen as redemption from an esoteric physical belief. 

3.      From an incorrect or evil system of belief.  For example, from a cult or a different religion.  A classic is from paganism to Christianity.  This is also a type of classic and historical redemption.  The opposite is true to some people.  For example, an atheist might consider redemption from religion to atheism.  This is a pretty varied view of the world.

4.      From lack of success to success.  This includes from poverty to wealth, from ignorance to education, from lack of training to training, from lack of skills to skilled.  If you remember, the redemption plot means the protagonist must do something to change, this becomes very clear.

5.      From physical, emotional, or mental slavery.  This really has legs.  If the term slavery seems too far, how about from an abusive relationship or abusive job or an abusive situation.  This is a very common theme and plot today.  Think about the Red Badge of Courage where the protagonist is afraid and a coward.  That is this type of redemption. 

6.      From a life of penury to a life of value and success.  Perhaps this is too much like number four above, but this is kind of a mix of four and five.  The idea that people are locked in a cycle of poverty or of lack of education is this point. 

7.      Are there more—yeah I think so.  I’ll try to think of more for tomorrow when we look at the revelation plot.

 

Revelation

1.      The protagonist, but this might be too general.

2.      The life of the protagonist—that’s just the plot of the novel.

3.      The secrets of the protagonist—that’s the life of the protagonist

4.      Okay, we can see this is a very general kind of overall plot.  It’s still important.  The protagonist needs something to reveal.  In the past, that is in the Victorian Era and before, the revelation of the protagonist was a new idea.  The authors did it, but they had little perception of this idea.  In general, in the early development of the novel, the authors were more interested in presenting a revelation of the plot and not the protagonist.  In the earliest novels, the authors couldn’t help but reveal the protagonist because they were journal style novels.  In a journal, the revelation of the protagonist is a given, but even with these novels, the author’s focus was on the plot (what the protagonist did) and not necessarily the protagonist.  As the novel evolved and matured, the protagonist became more and more important, while the plot became less important.  This is not to say the plot wasn’t important, but look at novels like David Copperfield or The Christmas Carol or Great Expectations.  These are all Victorian Era novels, but their focus is more on the protagonist and the protagonist revelation than the plot.  As I noted, the plot is still important, but a rambling plot is an indication of a protagonist revelation.  In the modern era, we see even more focus on the protagonist with the true development of the Romantic protagonist.  Just look at Harry Potty or any other modern and especially youth novels.  Yeah, there is a strong plot, but the protagonist is the focus.  The revelation of the protagonist is the most important part of these novels.  Where you see a dilution of this is with multiple protagonists and with multiple plots.  Game of Thrones and The Martian Chronicles are examples of these types of novels.  In fact, you will find in most short story style novels, this is true.  In any case, the revelation of the protagonist means we need an interesting and exciting protagonist.  Long story short…

 

Let’s go ahead and transition to the achievement plot.

 

Achievement

1.      Wealth

2.      Position

3.      Education

4.      Any goal

5.      Magic

6.      Athleticism

7.      Defeat enemy

8.      Save someone or something

9.      Profession

10.  Redemption

11.  Solve crime

12.  Solve mystery

13.  Find something

14.  Uncover mystery

15.  Discover something or someone

 

Above are our lists of overall plots.  We definitely want a redemption plot—there are so many, and we really want a matching achievement plot.  Let’s start with the concept of the Romantic protagonist and move from there. 

 

The Romantic protagonist comes from the common man (person okay).  Literary critic Northrop Frye noted that the Romantic hero is often "placed outside the structure of civilization and therefore represents the force of physical nature, amoral or ruthless, yet with a sense of power, and often leadership, that society has impoverished itself by rejecting".  He or she is also introspective, displays the triumph of the individual, melancholic, wanderlust, misanthropic, alienated, and isolated. 

All these characteristics are common to the Romantic protagonist, but not all required or all inclusive.  Let’s take these and begin building a protagonist from the plots.

 

Let’s put together a Romantic protagonist and then apply the overall plots.  I’ll build a great Romantic protagonist.  I may or might not use this protagonist in the future, but let’s just take a look at making a really good one.

 

Let’s just go down the list.  From the common means we need a protagonist who is not from a wealthy or noble family.  That includes politics or leadership.  This is a normal person from a “normal” family.  When I write normal, we need to take into consideration the event horizon, the culture, and the society.  Let’s not build a setting yet, but let’s start with a normal person from a normal background within the eventual context of our setting, society, and culture.  I really like to go down my list of potential protagonists from characters in my other novels.  I won’t do this yet, but that’s my usual start—let’s go on to the next characteristic.

 

Outside of the structure of civilization.  This is really pressing us towards a setting and time.  I’d like to resist this at the moment.  In today’s culture in the USA or Europe, we could take a person who was homeschooled.  We could also make a character who was educated in a foreign nation or in an excessive environment.  For example, a child educated in a Soviet Gulag or a CCP Gulag.  You could have a child from an unusual backwoods life.  Or you could have a child from a common schooling background whose background was unusual.  I’ve taken children from an uncivilized background and brought them into a common school before—that’s fun.  Let’s keep this in mind, but there are all kinds of outside the structure for our protagonist.

 

Force of physical nature.  In my literature, I like to use the mythical and the supernatural.  Let’s begin to set our protagonist.  How about a child raised in a wild environment?  I like to use Britain and there are still places in the United Kingdom and in Britain that are wild.  The USA or Canada would be great places for the wild origination setting.  The reason I mention these places because the English language is common.  I don’t mind working in other languages, but English is the focus of my readers and English readers appreciate English speaking characters—especially those who can speak other languages.  Let’s keep this as an open point—I haven’t set the protagonist yet.

 

Amoral or ruthless.  This is more of a characteristic than a setting object, but you can imagine a character whose parents or family was killed by some antagonist.  The reasons for this attitude or characteristic are more important than their use of them.  Perhaps we should have a character whose family was involved in spying in one of the nations we mentioned.  The child was orphaned through some means and now has to live on his or her own.

 

Sense of power and leadership.  Again this is more of a characteristic than a setting object.  Our protagonist should have been on his or her own for a while.  He or she is mentally and emotionally strong and has a natural leadership aura.

 

Society has impoverished itself by rejecting him or her.  This protagonist has great or growing skills, but he or she is not appreciated for what he or she can do.

 

Introspective means intellectual.  He or she loves to read and study.  He or she wants education.  If you notice, the normal education was denied to a degree by being outside the structure of civilization.  These are not all inclusive, but we are taking the extreme in this development.  I mean by that we are building an entirely Romantic protagonist based on all the characteristics of a Romantic protagonist.  Our protagonist loves to read and study.  He or she would like more of an education.  We haven’t set the age or place yet.  The age makes a great difference.  If a youth, there is a possibility of going to school or boarding school.  If older then university or a graduate program.  If an adult, then some means of learning new skills or education.  That means some training program.

 

Triumph of the individual.  Our protagonist might be helped, but he or she triumphs because of his or her skills and abilities.

 

Melancholic.  Okay, deep thinking and slightly disturbed.  I don’t mean emotionally, but mentally.  This is the constant tension of the Romantic.

 

Wanderlust.  Yes, our protagonist is willing or has been forced to move around.  For example, as you can see in the setup, our protagonist might have been chased out of his or her homeland or place to some other.

 

Misanthropic.  Our protagonist is wary of others for good reasons.  We setup the point of a person who was orphaned and chased out of his or her normal place.  If we have the child of a spy or perhaps some other isolated person, this gives a great reason for mistrusting others.

 

Alienated and isolated.  Yes, we are moving just toward this circumstance.

 

That’s the list of characteristics and some ideas.  I already had an idea for a protagonist along these lines.  I might as well use that one.  Here’s the basic character. 

 

Let’s just go back down the list again.  I’m thinking a girl who is in her teens.  If you look at my protagonists about half are male and half are female.  I have written about this before, but females make the best pathos developing protagonists.  Readers of both sexes and all persuasions can’t help feeling sorry for them especially if they are presented in an environment of suffering or poverty.  This is just what I want for my example.  I’m going to start with an impoverished female teen who is orphaned and has been abandoned. 

 

Outside of the structure of civilization.  This protagonist has been raised by her father in upper Scotland.  She has been culturally and socially isolated because her mother was fae and her father was a common man.  Her father was a handsome workman with zero connections and from an isolated Scottish background himself.  He lived with his father and mother in an old house at the outskirts of a village in the Scottish Highlands.  He was enamored of a garden fairy, and she had a child.  The garden fairy hung around until the garden outside the house fell into disrepair.  The disrepair was because the mother and father who took care of it died and the workman would not or could not take care of it.  The garden fairy hung around long enough to train her daughter in fae glamour (the power of the fae), so our protagonist is not without power, but she doesn’t understand how she can use it very well.  The workman father has kept his daughter a secret from the village and the people.  You have a person who is outside of the structure of civilization.  Her workman father dies before the novel, and she has been living alone in the house and decrepit garden.  She is an orphan.  Let’s say the workman died of a broken heart, alcohol poisoning, and exposure.  His daughter has been surviving through stealing food, rummaging in the garbage, offerings left by the superstitious people of the village.  We’ll build more into this.  

 

Force of physical nature.  The force of physical nature is the garden fae and the child of the garden fae.  This is a supernatural idea, but still represents the wild and untamed world of the Scottish Highlands.  In addition, we have the inclusion of Fae glamour.  I use this idea in my books to separate the idea of angelic or post angelic power which is a type of miracle form magic.

 

Amoral or ruthless.  Our protagonist must go to certain lengths to be able to continue to live.  She is unlike the civilized person who would just lay down and die.  She has skills that allow her to survive in the wild and without much help.  We also are moving in the plots and the telic flaw quite unintentionally.  We need to begin to write about what we will do with our protagonist.  We are already seeing the development of the telic flaw.  If she is abandoned, uneducated, orphaned, hungry, and living in an abandoned house, we are already seeing the development of the telic flaw.  I noted that the workman kept his daughter a secret form the village people.  When he dies, the property goes to the state.  We can say he had none or perhaps few relatives.  Perhaps we should add in a London or lower English relative.  This would be a great add.  The house has become the property of this London or lower English dwelling person.  The girl is living secretly in the house.  No one knows who she is or that she is there.  However, the house has a reputation for being haunted.  This started with the fae in the garden and progressed to the workman after the death of his parents.  The story in the village is that he died from a haunting and fear.  The girl just wants a roof over her head and nothing more, but time and the world are cast against her.  Then it happens…

 

Sense of power and leadership.  Our little half-fae girl does indeed have some independence and leadership.  Let’s say she has the fae of the valley and highlands under her thumb.  She keeps up the pretense that the house is haunted to prevent it form being rented or sold.  This is her power until this happens…

 

Society has impoverished itself by rejecting him or her.  Indeed, this girl has skills and abilities that would be of great use to herself and others if they could be trained, used, and harnessed. 

 

Introspective means intellectual.  Here is a small move from the norm.  The house is large and Elizabethan with many rooms and multiple stories.  It has an extensive library.  The workman’s parents were well educated.  His father was a builder and his mother was a teacher.  They were both studious, but their son was not.  Our girl protagonist has been reading the books since she was a child.  Her father was selling the books over time.  The girl has hidden the library so she can’t lose more books.  At the same time, the protagonist has not had a normal or a complete education.

 

Triumph of the individual.  Our protagonist needs some help to triumph, but once she gets training for her skills and abilities, there is hope.  The telic flaw is the achievement or accomplishment.

 

Melancholic.  Yeah, this protagonist is deeply melancholic.  She has had little help and has been constantly abandoned through her life.  She imagines there is no real hope for her.

 

Wanderlust.  Here we will make some slight difference or change from the list.  This protagonist is tightly attached to her place, the house and garden.  Still she will be willing to move around for the reason of success and change.  We shall see how this will work.

 

Misanthropic.  Yes, she doesn’t trust people.  This is a pressing idea from her background.  She must be redeemed form this lack of trust and dislike for people.  There, we are moving toward plots.  That’s actually what we will look at next.

 

Alienated and isolated.  Our protagonist is alienated and isolated.  She is alone and abandoned in an abandoned house on the outskirts of a Scottish village. 

 

This is what we will do next.  We will look at our protagonist and begin to apply plots.  I mean, I actually gave more than a hint.  One of the overall plots will be to be redeemed from her lack of trust and people.  We also saw the beginnings of the telic flaw.  This is to be expected.  The telic flaw comes with the protagonist. 

 

In the end, we can figure out what makes a work have a great plot, and apply this to our writing.     

      

The beginning of creativity is study and effort.  We can use this to extrapolate to creativity.  In addition, we need to look at recording ideas and working with ideas.    

    

More tomorrow.
