It's never clear whether what's happening belongs more toward the good or bad side of the vertical axis.The curve you get is a flat horizontal line. That's art. Never clearly good or bad but profound ambiguity.Also, for those interested in the systematic (graphical) formulation of stories, check out StoryGrid:https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/25455700-the-story-grid parent apo 8 years ago
