Synopsis "The Conflict Thesaurus: A Writer's Guide to Obstacles, Adversaries, and Inner Struggles (Volume 2) (Writers Helping Writers Series)"
A story where the character gets exactly what they want doesn't make for good reading. But add villainous clashes, lost advantages, power struggles, and menacing threats...well, now we have the makings of a page-turner. Conflict is the golden thread that binds plot to arc, providing the complications, setbacks, and derailments that make the character's inner and outer journeys dynamic. Inside Volume 2 of The Conflict Thesaurus, you'll find: A myriad of conflict options in the form of power struggles, ego-related stressors, dangers and threats, advantage and control losses, and other miscellaneous challengesInformation on how each scenario should hinder the character on the path to their goal so they'll learn valuable life lessons and gain insight into what's holding them back internallyInstruction about using the multiple levels of conflict to add pressure through immediate, scene-level challenges and looming problems that take time to solveGuidance on keeping a story's central conflict in the spotlight and utilizing subplots effectively so they work with-not against-the main plotlineAn exploration of the climax and how to make this pinnacle event highly satisfying for readersWays to use conflict to deepen your story, facilitate epic adversarial showdowns, give your characters agency, and infuse every scene with tensionMeaningful conflict can be so much more than a series of roadblocks.
