Hello Rebels, welcome to episode 107 of The Rebel Author Podcast. Today, I’m talking to Becca Puglisi all about how to craft better conflict in your novel.
In this episode we cover:
- What conflict is and why it’s so important for your novel
- How to layer conflict
- Mistakes writers make with conflict
- How to show conflict
- How to use “choice” and complicating choice to further tension and plot
This week’s question is: what is the best book you’ve read in your genre?
Recommendation of the week is: 13 Steps to Evil: How to Craft a Superbad Villain audiobook written and narrated by ME!

It would be nice to have a written transcript for the hearing impaired.
I do understand this. I used to do them, however it took a substantial amount of time which I don’t have at the moment and unfortunately I’m not in a position to pay for transcription right now. I do hope to be able to bring them back in the future.
