Setting

5. Conflict
A struggle or problem that the main character must resolve

6. Rising Action
The bulk of the story during which the main character works to resolve the conflict

7. Climax
The turning point where the main character faces the conflict ‘head on’. This is often the most exciting part of the story. You can also think of it as the ‘point of no return.’

8. Resolution The end of the story when the conflict is resolved.
But, what if the conflict is not resolved or another conflict is introduced?
That is called a cliff-hanger and the new conflict is the beginning of a new story called a sequel.

9. Plot
The sequence of events in fiction or drama

10. Subplot A plot of secondary importance.
Think Around the World in 80 Days. The story of Mr. Fogg is the plot. The story of Detective Fix is a subplot.
A parallel plot is a subplot of equal importance with the main plot.
Consider the story of Maximillian and Valentine in The Count of Monte Cristo

11. Foreshadow and Flashback
Foreshadow – Clues or hints about future events in the story
Flashback – An earlier event inserted into the chronological order of the story (Chronos – time, chronological – ordered according to a timeline.)

12. Setting
The location and time of a story or drama

13. Agatha Christie (1890–1976) is the world’s best-selling fiction writer, according to the Guinness Book of Records. Her seventy some-odd crime novels and short story collections have sold an estimated 2 billion copies (although some estimates peg it at up to 4 billion). The first literary detective is widely considered to be C. Auguste Dupin, who first appeared in "The Murders In the Rue Morgue" in 1841, written by Edgar Allan Poe. The earliest known crime novel is The Rector of Veilbye by the Danish author Steen Steensen Blicher, published in Although an argument could be made that the earliest known example of a crime story was "The Three Apples," one of the tales narrated by Scheherazade from Arabian Nights.
Sherlock Holmes is one of the most famous fictional detectives. Holmes was created by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle and is largely a mixture of Poe’s Dupin and Dr Joseph Bell, a real-life doctor who taught Doyle at the University of Edinburgh while Doyle was studying to be a medical doctor.
