@Saragflee Hi, thanks for the question.
I’m creating a kind of storyboard, using Scrivener. I’m taking images that are appropriate/symbolic of the scene.
I’m trying for the first time to create a chiastic structure (first half of the story is mirrored by the second half).
For example, in the very first scene the young, enslaved heroine is on the top of a Carthusian church tower, mourning the loss of her mother. The final scene mirrors this when we see her in the same place in full command of her powers ready to leave.
Neither image is literal; they only symbolise the combination of the narrative arc and the MC’s arc.
@Danielw 's PPN, especially the ABC Character plot has been invaluable during this process.
