When You Understand Storytelling But Nothing Changes
A cohesive character alignment system for writers who feel stuck.
The Real Issue
Most stalled stories are not missing plot. They are misaligned.
You can:
Raise stakes
Add conflict
Rewrite scenes
But if the story never threatens what the protagonist believes keeps them safe, transformation will not happen.
This bundle gives you the full character alignment layer.
It helps you:
Identify what your protagonist protects
Understand resistance patterns
Align pressure properly
Recognize why escalation is not working
Diagnose structural misalignment
This is not a formula.
It is a framework for clarity.
