[QUOTE="DeeEff, post: 100964, member: 2188"] Both of your sentences describe the concept I'm looking to "wordify", but at different levels. The "stories of different people happening simultaneously" is a deeper or more complete version of "disparate strands", and they were "woven together" when "they ultimately met up and made the story into a whole." I am not an educated writer by any means, but was struck again by this writing style as I just finished "Walking on Glass" by Iain Banks (a.k.a. Iain M. Banks of sf Culture fame), which was basically three complete and unrelated stories told round-robin fashion that didn't come together until the very last chapter. This was Banks' second published book and as such lacked a lot of finesse, but was still quite a worthwhile read. [/QUOTE]
