Of use to readers, reviewers, and authors, this video introduces a series of discussions where the Nemesis, Dr. Philip Chase, (@PhilipChaseTheBestofFantasy ) and I share what we’ve learned about analyzing stories over the years. During the series, we will cover various topics, including story versus plot, narrative perspective, characters, setting and world building, symbols, tone and style, and themes. It is our hope that the tools and techniques we discuss will add enjoyment to people’s storytelling journeys and help advance critical reading skills.

This episode delves a little deeper into characters.
