Plots

My journey in reading and writing stories began when I was young. Like many of you, we all tend to be drawn to certain story types, genres, and even certain types of plotlines.

 

So, it has always made me wonder just how few unique plot lines there are. What marks those who have mastered story-telling is their ability to find a unique take on an old plotline.

 

I wrote about this on another blog, take a look and let me know what you think.
