October 10: Rising Action
Review your notes from the "Premise" and "Beginning" plot exercises, and tweak the conflict(s) and inciting incident as needed before proceeding with the "Rising Action" plot exercise, as follows:

(1) Describe any initial refusals on the part of your protagonist(s) to face the conflict.
(2) Describe the moment when your protagonist(s) makes the choice to face the conflict.
(3) Describe the moment when your protagonist(s) crosses the point of no return and cannot change their mind.
(4) Fill in some of the blanks: How will your characters get from the point of no return to the climax?


This makes up a part of your beginning and middle to climax. I plotted this in my outline. To make it easier, what are the ways the character refuses to accept the call to adventure and what is the character's point of no return in the end that would lead to the climax?

The key points also rely here. Now if you're doing a nonfiction book the question may be different. What are the key points in your book?

Just some food for thought. Need clarification? Ask away.
