31 Day Writing Tips - Day 28

Looking through Story Structure Architect, I found an obvious one I forgot - Conflict. Conflict is important to any story. You need conflict or you don't have a story. It doesn't matter what genre you're working in. Your conflict takes up the middle of your book. It's what needs resolving. You can have a simple conflict with a simple solution. Those are usually your less than 300-page books. Or you can have your complicated conflicts with more than one issue. You can also have one compounded issue. When you think you're getting close to the answer, something else happens and throws you off track and in another direction. Personally, I like complicated and compounded. It makes for a better read. How do you like your conflict? Thanks for reading.
