Remember, Dramatica Pro is a set of tools to HELP you with your story development. It is not supposed to DICTATE your story to you. The theory describes a 'perfect' world. Real people do not live in perfect worlds, nor do they tell perfectly formed stories. Even if they did, the process of converting the ideas (storyform) into a form understandable by an audience is messy, as is the potential process of interpretation by the audience.\n\nLet Dramatica help you where you feel you need help.
