Frequency Of Words
19/Apr/2007 Filed in: News
Of course we did not plan out which
words would be most written about, yet this list begins to indicate
the wealth and point of view in The Writer’s Interface
(TWI).
Obviously TWI is first about writing character-story. Thus this book is full of instances of describing the nature of characters and their story.
Story comes second and shows how story is crafted into readable and exciting text.
The Six Most Used Words:
◦ Character(s) 898
◦ Story(ies) 790
◦ Life 434
◦ List(s) 288
◦ Reader(s) 237
◦ Writer(s) 230

The hundreds of references to life are
intentional. This author surveys the field of television, movies
and novels and sees that today’s readers and audiences are able to
encompass more of the real world than the superficial and
artificial world of Frank Sinatra and his buddies in the Fifties
and Sixties.
The world of today can encompass the Dark Side, and needs to. Thus our most serious productions need to be dramatic lessons in reality dealing with real issues and real conflicts.
The verdict is not in yet whether modern productions will just picture the extremes of a dark and comic reality, or also offer dramatic transformation and problem-solving hope to the viewer and reader.
Life is the next most frequent word. This reflects the author’s emphasis on dramatic reality being a parallel to life reality.
This author tends to emphasize drama and fiction as that cultural product that examines the world at its worst and best, but also inspires people to live a life of character and values, but not by fleeing from the Dark Side of life.
The word, list, is used a significant number of times because the author’s interactive teaching method is to provide users many, many lists of story and craft ideas in all major story areas that the user-writer takes and modifies and turns into the content and structures of their own story they are trying to tell, using the best that is story-craft.
The user-writer of TWI is not given a relatively few basics as is true for other story-craft writing software the author has seen. The user of TWI is given hundreds and hundreds of serious writing craft tools and ideas to use. No wonder the word, List(s) appears so much in The Writer’s Interface!
Since the author of TWI is a writer-psychologist it makes sense that the words, reader(s) and writer(s), are near the top of the most frequent list. Thus Strephon provides his expert knowledge again and again in understanding reader motivation and psychology, and how to build this into character psychology.
Strephon is also strong on motivating and teaching committed writers, so it is natural that writer(s) gets a high word frequency. This means that all users of TWI will appreciate Strephon’s understanding of writers and their creativity needs in writing good story.
Thus we also say that if you never reach a final destiny step of having a best-selling book, you will achieve for yourself, in following through with a writing project, how to express yourself better with people. This means being able to tell stories dramatically about yourself and others, and not just occasionally jokes that you hear from someone else first.
There are hundreds of other significant key words in the index of key words. This index is not part of the WriteItNow software directly. However, the WIN Global Find function, under the File Menu, will take you through all the text places of key words, such as “conflict (53 times).” This is then used by you to review all the instances of a key word so that you increase your knowledge interactively and apply your knowledge to your actual story project.
Never be at a loss for story-craft ideas used by story-tellers for thousands of years on creating and dramatizing story with conflict situations. Do this with a major number of other key story-concepts and craft ideas.
Since The Writer’s Interface is a complete digital book, you have a wealth of information compiled interactively, which you use by learning, and learn by using.
What could be more supportive to your writing and story development?
