Define "Change"

Ask a friend to define what "change" is. Change is such a loaded word.

While change can be used to describe coins leftover after breaking a dollar, or used to describe how you put on new clothes, change for me means something much, much more valuable.

I define change from the perspective of a fiction writer, and as a fiction writer, change is one of the most important aspects of writing a solid story, but what does it mean in relation to fiction? How is it used best? With this definition, of course:

Change is an event - spoken dialogue, internal emotion or a physical action - that causes irreversible consequences, creates challenging differences between characters and alters the expected outcome of future events.

Now think about your life and consider when changed happened for you, what it impacted, and what the outcome of that change was.

Thought so.

B3 out.
