Are you struggling to create an opening hook that truly grabs your reader's attention? Are you having trouble making your readers care about your characters and their desires? Do you feel like your world-building is getting in the way of your story? In this episode, we're discussing the key elements of a BANGER opening hook. We explore how internal conflict is the most important aspect of a story, as it pits a character's desires against their fears. We're also going to provide tips on how to use external events to bring the internal conflict to the forefront and show why it matters to the characters. To ensure that you're creating compelling internal conflict, we're also sharing a list of questions to ask yourself as you write your first chapter.
