A New Writing Guide for You: The Conflict Thesaurus (+ #Giveaway) #Books #Writing

I don't know about you, but I get a little excited when a new writing guide comes along. Today I get to spill the news that The Conflict Thesaurus: A Writer's Guide to Obstacles, Adversaries, and Inner Struggles (Vol. 1) has hit the shelves.

This guide is about that killer ingredient our stories need: Conflict. It shows you exactly how to use conflict to raise tension, create a fresh story premise, and pull readers in. The guide also dives into over 100 conflict scenarios and how each can be endlessly adapted to challenge a character inside and out. Problems, Moral Dilemmas, Ticking Clocks, Obstacles, No-Win Scenarios...this book is plot brainstorming in overdrive!

I'm part of Angela & Becca's Street Team for this release, and have been cheering them on since the first Emotion Thesaurus was published. When it comes to conflict, we have an important question to ask you:

Can You Survive Danger as Well as Your Favorite Protagonist?


Sure, it's easy for you to use conflict to torture your characters and make them struggle, but what if it's you in the hot seat instead? Will you make good decisions, or bad ones?

It's time to find out by taking the Conflict Challenge! I dare you to become the protagonist in a special story Angela & Becca have created. And heads up, if you survive, you win some pretty cool stuff!




GIVEAWAY ALERT!

While you're at Writers Helping Writers taking the Conflict Challenge, make sure to enter The Conflict Thesaurus celebratory giveaway, too. But hurry - it's only on for a few days.

So, take the challenge...if you dare. And don't forget to come back and let me know how you did against Camp Deadwood!
