Conflict & Resolution

Write a story in which the main character faces conflict with a perceptually ‘insignificant’ aspect of their routine life, and how it escalates and finally resolves.

This prompt is framed around the critical fiction-writing element of conflict and resolution. The exercise encourages you to create a compelling and relatable conflict from ordinary circumstances, emphasizing how seemingly small issues can escalate. The objective is to explore how conflict drives the plot forward and how resolution brings satisfying closure to the narrative, thereby focusing on the structure of the story.
