    @hope-ann @daeus-lamb @ericawordsmith Thank you all for the insight!

    You mentioned that the series as a whole will be made up of a bunch of character arcs. When planning the macro-arc/overall plotline, should I be too concerned about which portion fits which arc (i.e., approach the macro-plot by trying to check off each point of the character arc)? Or rather, should I instead be more concerned about planning the cause-effect chain that the plot is made of (the hero does this causing the villain to do such and such, etc.), and then reverse-engineer out the appropriate character arcs?
