Understanding Conflict: (And What It Really Means) (Skill Builders Series Book 2)
Do you struggle with creating conflict in your novel? You don't have to.
Janice Hardy, award-winning author and founder of the popular writing site, Fiction University, takes you deep inside one of the most important aspects of storytelling--conflict. She'll help you understand what conflict really is, discuss the various aspects of conflict, and reveal why common advice on creating conflict doesn't always work.
With in-depth analysis and easy-to-understand examples, Understanding Conflict (And What It Really Means) looks at how to develop and create conflict in your novel. It also explores the things that affect conflict (such as tension), and the misconceptions that confuse and frustrate so many writers.
This book will help you:

By the end of this book, you’ll have a solid understanding of what conflict means and the ability to use it to craft strong and compelling fiction.
