The HartChart™ is a story-mapping tool to track the emotions of characters and their journeys. It helps writers to visualize the rise and fall of their characters as they make choices and proceed through the story. Key to the design and launch of the HartChart™ is the creative input of software designer and coder, Guy Goldstein. Guy brings his fifteen years of professional software development, and five years of screenwriting to the venture. Guy is most known for creating the real-time collaborative screenwriting software WriterDuet™ (www.writerduet.com).
