@Kathy_Fraggle I’m going today! I’m wearing my Wicked shirt I got when I went to see the stage production one of the six times i’ve seen it.

If the stakes are too low, your story will fall flat—even if you have compelling characters & strong writing.

But stakes can often feel nebulous. How do you even raise the stakes?

Here are 3 techniques to instantly amplify the stakes & make readers more invested: 🧵

To tell if you have a strong plot, ask:
1. Is the conflict clear?
2. Are the stakes high enough?
3. Does the protagonist face obstacles?
4. Is your plot focused?
5. Do the scenes build on one another?

If you answer "no" to any of the above, work on that to strengthen your story.

Isn't that the entire point of the show? I would hope it would be more in depth than the films. That's the only reason why they should make it.
