Story Arcs

I’ve been working on the progression in one of my stories and it has been an interesting adventure. It is serving to be much harder to fix than a couple of overused adjectives. Anyway, I created story arcs for the several different plot lines I have going on and lo and behold, the tip of the old arc is not where I thought it was for one of the story lines. Who knew that the big event of the office break-in would be a mere turning point for the main character and not the climax? I didn’t. Heck, I didn’t even really think about it. It was an interesting surprise!
