Tip - The Secret to Creating Conflict - The Write Practice

We often think that to create conflict we need to show spectacular events. For example, a car chase, an argument between lovers, a fistfight, or the threat of a nuclear explosion. Or we think of conflict as some kind of internal suffering: depression, longing, or pain.But the truth is that if events and emotions were the only elements of conflict in our stories, we'd have some pretty flat stories.Conflict, in good stories, is not about spectacular events or painful emotions. Good conflict is about values.
