It's those underlying differences that should make the arguments exist, not just the author creating them from thin air for conflict's sake.Rachel Frosthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18196361094129390262noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8852474824982150984.post-23680546151720115072011-11-05T00:34:34.669-06:002011-11-05T00:34:34.669-06:00I like the conflicting romance story in, The Fores...I like the conflicting romance story in, The Forest of Hands and Teeth. Even though the protagonist whines a lot, Carrie Ryan did a great job of keeping you guessing who she'll end up with.AVDutsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06068169781166515350noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8852474824982150984.post-69972652702736953612011-11-04T13:41:05.098-06:002011-11-04T13:41:05.098-06:00That's pretty interesting conflict analysis, a...That's pretty interesting conflict analysis, adding complexity to give the conflict depth.<br /><br />Also, thanks for stopping by my blog...following back and really enjoyed your post.Angela Brownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03324366495151363782noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8852474824982150984.post-64689395900358655452011-11-04T10:41:42.430-06:002011-11-04T10:41:42.430-06:00I agree with her list!

Random arguments or miscommunication or disagreeing are shallow, over-used, and...feel cheap unless they stem from larger, underlying issues such as what she's named. Problems shouldn't be created, they should come from somewhere. A natural result of something already in place within them or within the story.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
