12.37: Subplots
Your Hosts: Brandon, Mary, Mary Anne, and Wesley
What makes a plot a subplot? Must subplots and main plots be linked by something more binding than the actual binding of the book?
In this episode we answer these questions, and ask and answer plenty more.
Credits: This episode was recorded in Chicago by Andrew Twiss, and mastered by Alex Jackson.
Homework: Consider the following four things – environment, characters, disruptions of status quo, and questions, and which one of these is driving your main plot. Now ask which of the remaining three can contain a disaster that drives a subplot. Write that bit.
Thing of the week: Survivor edited by Mary Anne Mohanraj and JJ Pionke (coming soon from Lethe Press).
