Epiphany in fiction gives the story its profound literary quality.

Greetings from the House of Mormont!
By participating in a Writing.com activity called "Game of Thrones" Open in new Window., I am in no way endorsing the GoT franchise or identifying as a fan thereof. I’m here to help my team win *Smile*

A wise and informative article about creating an epiphany in one’s stories. I find that one’s inner worldview plays a role in what kind of epiphanies one crafts for the characters. Though I strive to maintain positivity in my items, sometimes I question whether a “happy” ending is best… other times I feel as though the ending was neither here nor there, and rather fell flat instead.

What is important is what the characters learn, whether about themselves or the outside world. The observation towards the end that one might have gone a little too easy on the character is a good point, as one doesn’t usually learn much unless much is gone through. I can think of at least one story of mine where, though the main character does reach an epiphany of sorts, it doesn’t really lead to a shift in behavior for him. The flaws that brought him to that stage are still present, which leads to the realization that the story has no real resolution and the resolving of the final conflict is tenuous at best. But, since it’s a contest entry, I’ll have to wait until next month before considering how to make it better. (Really, one can consider as much as you like until you’re ready to write. Nothing wrong with that.)

I would suggest using Size 4 Verdana font to ensure readability and accessibility across devices. A word count might be a good idea so we know when we have a chance to read it. The writing is clear and concise, and the concept of a literary epiphany is well defined.

Thanks for sharing, take care and keep writing *Heartg*
