In the best stories, the protagonist (main character) undergoes change as he or she struggles to meet challenges, resolve conflict, and achieve the story goal. The character may overcome a weakness or have a change of heart or point of view, but he is not the same person at the end of the story as he was at the beginning. The story-journey changes him. In our post Fiction Writing: What is a Character Arc? we help you create character change that is both incremental and believable.
