#PhantastikPrompts 9/28: Do supporting characters of yours have their own plots that play out “in the background“?

Oh, of course. They do. It's one of my favorite parts of writing, and that can be said for all of my stories, not just my current WIP.

#onthisday

Herman Melville, American author and poet died on this day in 1891.
He was an American writer of the American Renaissance period.

Among his best-known works are Moby-Dick (1851), Typee (1846), a romanticized account of his experiences in Polynesia, and Billy Budd, Sailor, a posthumously published novella.

At the time of his death, Melville was not well known to the public, but 1919, the centennial of his birth, was the starting point of a Melville revival. Moby-Dick would eventually be considered one of the Great American Novels.

Most everyone has heard of Captain Ahab, Ishmael, and Queequeg, not to mention the white whale. In parts it reads like a treatise on whaling and has one of the literature’s most famous opening sentences, "Call me Ishmael."

Amongst his other works my favourite is, "Bartleby, the Scrivener: A Story of Wall Street," a short story first serialized anonymously in two parts in the November and December 1853 issues of Putnam's Magazine and reprinted in his, The Piazza Tales, in 1856.
In the story, a Wall Street lawyer hires a new clerk, who, after an initial bout of hard work, refuses to make copies or do any other task required of him, responding to any request with the words "I would prefer not to," which becomes all he ever says.

Not only does she have none, she is incapable of developing any. The concepts don't exist in her language. And. Had I not mentioned it in response to this question, you'd probably not have noticed except for some circumlocutions in the narration. Can't use the words derivative of belief or faith or luck, for example. Sort of spoilery, so please endeavor to forget I mentioned it.
