Figure 4.7 Why-Why Diagrams

Why-Why diagrams can be used when you need to:

 Identify problems that you might be have with plot or characters

 Identify possible causes of key plot outcomes
 Investigate plot problems and find a fix

 Identify potential new subplots and opportunities for character development
 Define specific tasks for a goal (either your own or your characters)
 Visualize all aspects of a problem or goal

How to use Why-Why diagrams:

 Clearly state the problem.

 Brainstorm a list of possible causes and ask why the problem exists.
 Identify which causes are the most important through data collection.
 Then ask why the problem exists.

 Continue to ask why until you get to something basic answer– Often takes 5 whys.
