: Re: Vignette-esque story structure? I'm writing a novel which essentially has the main character go from place to place and retrieve a single object from each person they encounter. My problem is

I think I understand your problem and I don't have an answer to your question about a name. However, I do have a suggestion: write all the separate stories and then see if an overall conflict emerges or occurs to you. It is possible that while you are editing the first draft an idea will come to you or you may be more able to impose an idea.

Character development can be conflict. For example, someone who realises that their goal is selfish or that the goal is wrong is in conflict. Economic pressure -- the character keeps running out of money -- could link the stories. a turbulent relationship might work.

The overall conflict may not be directly linked to the stories and still hold the lot together. Think of 'One Thousand and One Nights'.
