This week’s writing challenge is to plan a narrative using the 5 step plan we talked about last week.

  1. Orientation - characters (limit yourself to 2 main characters) and setting
  2. Problem - what is the problem facing the characters?
  3. Complication -what happens to complicate the problem and make it worse?
  4. Resolution -how is the problem solved?
  5. Conclusion - How do your characters end up? (…and then he died OR then he woke up ….. is absolutely banned! Remember the KISS principle - Keep It Simple Simon)

We will post some of your story plans on our blog. They may inspire other writers to develop the story. Good luck.
