Quote from: The Butcher;380335I think that's the gist of what Emboldened Navigator was saying. The "traditionalist" label is a literary one, in that the "Story Now" cultists are actually advocating a very traditional narrative structure, as opposed to modernist and postmodernist writers (who did not necessarily adhere to any given model of narrative structure, and often wrote with no clear rhyme or reason).
