Here we represent the simplest most abstract version of a story. A character in a place and time takes action that has consequences. There is much more to be said about each of these components of story. **I MUST PUT THIS INTO THE SUPER COLLAORATOR**.

"Bob fell overboard and never surfaced." is a sparse but structurally complete story.
Here we explore story as a network model that answers the Six Nested Questions in narrative form.
Actions (Processes) Objects (In States Events (Whats) Settings Beliefs Characters Affordances (Props) Motives (Why) Strategies (How) Roles (Who) Actions (Processes Dialogue (Interaction) Stage (Staging) Scenes Plot (advances) Learnings (Processes) Audience
**SETTINGS** (PLACE/**WHERE?**, TIME/**WHEN?**, CULTURE, MOOD)
**STAGE and STAGING**
# Narrative Components
**CHARACTERS** (PEOPLE & ORGANIZATIONS/**WHO?**, ACTORS, ROLES, MOTIVES/**WHY?**) DIALOGUE/INTERACTION
**SCENES** (EPISODES, SEQUENCES OF: PEOPLE/**WHO?**, PLACE/**WHERE?**, AFFORDANCES/**WHAT? & HOW?** DIALOGUE/INTERACTION INCREMENTAL ACTION/**WHAT?**) **STAGE (STAGING)**
**PLOT** (CHANGING MOTIVES/**WHY?**, CHANGING ACTION (causes and effects), CHANGING STRATEGY-TACTICS/**HOW?**, CHANGING TIME/**WHEN?**)
**LEARNING** (OUTCOMES, REALIZATION, INSIGHT)
