Great Advice on Plotting

I just read a fantastic post on story structure by Jodi Meadows at (W)ords and(W)ardances. Challenge your character! Each new episode must complicate the one before, adding a new layer to the tension. Build tension vertically as well as horizontally. A must read http://jmeadows.livejournal.com/743005.html?view=7779421#t7779421
