Introduction

This is the third of a three part series where we're looking at the five commandments of story telling. We're looking at it specifically through the lins of the short story i witness by ed mc bain. The climax is the fourth commandment, and this is coming out of the crisis dilemma. What this does for us from a narrative standpoint is that it reveals character. And so this is the kind of thing that we really want to focus on.
