Plot and Conflict

Nothing is more boring that a story without conflict, or a plot for that matter.

Today, map out your own story on the plot diagram, and answer the questions that follow.

Questions to consider:
1. In 1-2 sentences, describe the plot of your novel.
2. In 1 sentence, describe the conflict of your novel.
3. Think about how you plotted your inciting incident, rising action, and so on. Did you stick to your plan when writing? Does the plot still unfold in a way that makes sense? If not, do you need to include more action? Do you need to remove some action? Where exactly did your plot wander, if it didn't stay on track?
4. Based on what you now know about your novel's plot and conflict, what do you need to revise in order for your novel to be the best?
