Without conflict no story would be worth reading about. Conflict is central to a story’s plot.

Exposition: the start of the story, the situation before the action starts Rising Action: the series of conflicts and crisis in the story that lead to the climax Climax: the turning point, the most intense moment— either mentally or in action Falling Action: all of the action which follows the climax Resolution: the conclusion, the tying together of all of the threads

 Plot conflict is a struggle between two forces within a story. There are numerous types of conflict:  Man vs. ManPerson vs. Person  Man vs. NaturePerson vs. Nature  Man vs. SocietyPerson vs. Society  Man vs. HimselfPerson vs. Self

This type of conflict finds the main character in conflict with another character, human or not human.

Teacher said, “You don’t obey. You fidget and twidget And won’t sit down. So go stand in the corner now ‘Til I say you can turn around.” So there I stood ‘til it got dark Without a whimper or a tear, ‘Til everybody else went home. I guess that she forgot me here. And that was Friday, so I stayed All through the weekend—being good, And Monday was the first day of Summer vacation, so I stood Through hot July and sticky August, Tryin’ to obey her rule. Stood right there until September, When—yikes—they closed down the school! Boarded up the doors and windows, Moved to a new one way ‘cross town. So here I’ve stood for forty years In dark and dust and creaky sounds, Waiting for her to say, “Turn around.” This might not be just want she meant, But me—I’m so obedient.

This type of conflict finds the main character in conflict with the forces of nature, which serve as the antagonist.

George got stung by a bee and said, “I wouldn’t have got stung if I’d stayed in bed.” Fred got stung and we heard him roar, “What am I being punished for?” Lew got stung and we heard him say, “I learned somethin’ about bees today.”

This type of conflict has the main character in conflict with a larger group: a community, society, culture, etc.

They don’t allow pets in this apartment. That’s not decent, that’s not fair. They don’t allow pets in this apartment. They don’t listen, they don’t care. I told them he’s quiet and never does bark, I told them he’d do all his stuff in the park, I told them he’s cuddly and friendly, and yet— They won’t allow pets.

In this type of conflict, the main character experiences some kind of inner conflict.

There is a voice inside of you That whispers all day long, “I feel that this is right for me, I know that this is wrong.” No teacher, preacher, parent, friend Or wise man can decide What’s right for you—just listen to The voice that speaks inside.
