Problems: His stepfather Vince, looking for spaces to sleep, he's homeless, Shelter, he's alone, he's freezing, doesn't have enough money, can't trust anyone, no place to go to the toilet, has no friends, people looked out on him, hygiene,
Characters: Vince (catalyst, mean, anger, selfish, ), Link (, Shelter (trained to kill, crazy, callous, intelligent, highly organised, ironic name), Ginger (reinforces our theme, taking care of others, ), Gail (journalist, love interest, Gail is in the book as a romantic interest and also she further reinforces our theme, taking care of others) , Toya (Ginger's friend, the girl who's dad came looking for, at a restaurant talked to ginger and his friends but ignores Link)
10 conflicts:
1)Vince vs. Link (man vs. man) ORDINARY WORLD
2)Link vs. Carole (man vs. himself)
3)Link vs. Homelessness (man vs. himself)

9)Ginger vs. Shelter (man vs. man)
10)Link vs. Gail (man vs. man) Gail is the love interest
11)Shelter vs. Link (man vs. man)
Shelter is hunting Link and Link is hunting Shelter. As a result it's building up tension. The climax is in the apartment of Shelter
Link is the protagonist
Shelter is the antagonist (the evil villain in the story) (the antagonist is the character who's in conflict with the protagonist)
Shelter is crazy for organisation |
Ginger is the mentor (someone who shows you the way)
Foil (a character that goes through the same decisions) (mirrors the main character)
New resolution= new order
Denouement= the untying of the knot
