How do you create conflict from the very first paragraph and sustain it through an entire novel?
In this episode, I sit down with bestselling author Robyn Harding to talk about how conflict drives a compelling thriller. We explore putting characters under pressure, creating opposing wants and needs, building obstacles, and using twists and turning points to keep a story moving.
Robyn shares how she approaches story structure, writes dual protagonists, tracks overlapping timelines, and makes each chapter move her characters forward while also making it harder for them to get what they want. We also discuss challenging readers’ expectations and the many forms conflict can take, from internal struggles and relationships to society and environment.
We close with an important piece of advice for writers at any stage: finish something. Completing a manuscript, whether it ultimately gets published or not, can teach you invaluable lessons about storytelling and structure.
Join me for a practical conversation with Robyn Harding about creating tension, structuring a thriller, and making conflict work on every level of a story.
