Steve's Demystifying Dramatica Made Simple FAQs

Written by Stephen Greenfield
Original Dramatica Chief Software Architect

I developed this FAQ to provide quick answers to the most commonly asked questions, issues and controversies about Dramatica. There are many misconceptions about the software and theory, typically circulated by people who have never even examined the software. I hope this FAQ gives you the necessary information to take a closer look at this remarkable program and theory.
