Plot Character Theme

I know what good writing is. I can see it directly. I can see metaphors around me in life. I read life like a screenplay now.
It's like in the matrix, where Neo can see the numbers floating down, the code that makes up life. I look around me, I talk to people close to me, strangers and I see it. The language of story everywhere, within everything.

The three things that make up the screenplay: plot, character and theme. They relate to each other. They relate to life. The plot is the things that happen in your life, the events, the locations, the props. The characters are everyone around you, everyone you know, everyone you don't. The theme is...

The theme is you. What you are. What you deal with. What your destiny is. What the destiny of this world is. Emotions.

I will never right something not character-driven. I want to explore the depths of the soul. I want to explore my problems and show them to the world without them noticing.

And I know I can do it. I have faith in that.

Freed Men is just the beginning.
