In this Chapter we are going to make a plot ladder. It is an idea developed from the exercise in the previous chapter and we are going to make a plot ladder in exactly the same way, by drawing at random a character and a series of actions. For continuity we will keep the same set of instructions and the same collection of jobs and professions from the previous chapter, but we will use a different job/profession. At the end of the exercise we will have written from the same material but with a change of character. The change of character and start point will yield a fresh, new interpretation of the same material.
Key idea: Even if you start in the same place, different characters, coming from various backgrounds, with their own individual wants and needs and attitudes, will not view the same action the same way and so your story will be different.
