To a writer Locations are interesting. Locations carry the visuals
that communicate mood and story nuance to the viewer or reader. The
Writer's Interface gives you then a symbolic description of a
generic list of places used a lot in fiction and cinema. No one
else has put together such a list that we know of, and certainly
not with this author's psychological descriptions since he is also
an expert psychologist. For writers needing more psychological
training for richer characters and story elements, this is one of
the learning helps available to you in The Writer's
Interface.
Note that in the description on the right of Abandoned House its
symbolic possible meanings actually give you plo-story ideas as
well. This is called 'enriching the story' because when you do this
the reader gets more stimulation of her or his imagination and
emotional involvement with your story. Knowing symbolic levels for
story elements allows you to use your writer's imagination to
enhance story and thus the reader's story experience with
you.
A good writer plans Places as also story development elements, just
as they plan Events as developing Scenes, and Characters as
Reactive Forces to both events and places. How good a writer do you
want to be? How important and knowledgeable a character in your own
story are you? A story is known as much by its writer as a writer
is known by his or her stories.
