Fictional Characters: Storytelling


Taking a life lesson or the morale of a story to heart cannot be understated. When you take a character, plot, story development, authorial analysis, or storyline seriously, you get the chance to take characters home with you. With that chance, you can substantiate prior learned lessons. Fictional characters have a lot to offer. Substituting hard-work with an an author's take on culture saves you time, energy, and painfulness. 

I cannot commend reading enough. Reading fiction has tremendous value. Oftentimes, you come across a character that explains someone in your life or past. Fiction can bring healing. You develop mentally. You get smarter. You learn interesting things. You learn about yourself, your family, and the world around you. Character development does not pertain exclusively to real-life observations. That characters you come across in a book are just as fascinating as the ones you would encounter in your life. 

In a way, embracing a work of fiction in a way that brings a character to home is a new thing. Traditionally, readers are taught to keep a distance between characters and themselves. You are told to remember boundaries, reasons why you are reading, guidelines, instructions, and authoritative voices. You are told to read along those lines. In this light, the traditional way is not the right way. I have learned that being involved in the text is appropriately human.
