A story or plot that is organized by a character has one character the main story revolves around. The other types of organization are idea organization and cause to effect. All three usually are present within a story, but one is usually dominant. Forrest Gump is an example of a story that has character organization. It also has elements of cause to effect and to a lesser extent organization by a central idea, but the main character is the most dominant aspect that creates continuity. Throughout the film the focus is on what happens to Forrest. Other characters come into play, but only in relationship as to how their interactions with Forrest are important.
