A E Willcox also posted an article in her post, and I'd read it in her port a few days prior. Here's the link: "Story Plots - Why They're Essential" . If you haven't yet read it, Adhere - Definitely Writing , this article might tickle your plotting ideas, or further complicate them.

A E Willcox's got a lot of other great articles on writing in her "Articles" folder (where the article I've linked above is housed). I'd recommend adding it to your resources if you haven't already
