Can you elaborate more on the 'strokes?' I'm getting a mental image of someone spasming on the floor at the moment. Sorry! Do you mean like each dialogue is a stroke? Are there any readings that I can do? Scholarly papers? Thanks for the post though, the mind fascinates me!

Strokes are single lines of dialogue. "Hi" is one stroke "hello" is a response stroke. Check out the wiki article on Transactional Analysis. It's got the gist of it. The big problem is that the idea was made in the 70's and largely torn apart in the last 40 years. I like the core of the idea and it fits well into a larger "life as story" theory of mine, which is why it's modified from the original.
