Episode Ten: Conflict

from The Novel Writers Podcast · host Brianna Labuskes and Meredith Hambrock

Will there be fisticuffs? Possibly! (Probably not). But join Bri and Mer anyway as they talk about conflict and how it goes far beyond the seven main categories you were taught in school. They discuss how to create minor layers of conflict that amplify your book’s theme, how to make your audience care, and how stakes play a role in all of it. Come for the reasons why Bri thinks conflict makes everything easier, and stay for the fight! Fight! Fight!
