Question About Telepaths and PS Style
Posted: Aug 14, 2013 1:45 pm
Hi everyone,
I've been enjoying the Dramatica theory. One question just popped into mind. The theory has a Problem-Solving Style, saying some characters would think linearly and others would think in terms of space or relationships. What if you're writing a science fiction story where a telepath sends a message to somebody else? If the telepath is a problem solver who thinks in terms of relationships and spatial arrangement, would there be a barrier to a receiver who thinks linearly? Imagine the communication problems we have when men and women try to converse.
Thanks,
Geoff
