Conflict has caused more than its fair share of writer frustrations.
Like many writers, I’ve spent countless hours creating conflict in my novels. I’ve thrown exciting obstacles in my protagonists’ paths, I’ve developed sinister antagonists to thwart my heroes, I’ve devised cruel ways to put my characters through mental anguish—and my beta readers still told me, “This scene needs more conflict.”
Because what we “know” about conflict is often wrong.
