There's nothing like a dose of sensuality to get a human intrigued. You can do so with a bit of taste, while still guaranteeing an uptick in your reader's blood pressure. Contemplate your own response to such a beginning: "Suddenly, she felt the secret of a kiss ripple through her body and bloom beneath the surface of her skin. Her joints softened, her breath caught, her lips fell heavily against one another and her tongue swelled against them, reaching for a taste of air tinged with enticement." A particularly fun and unsurprisingly effective way of grabbing your reader's attentions is by throwing something at them that's unexpected and demands explanation. This will intrigue them both by making them wonder what's going on, and by simply surprisingly them. In other words, begin with a premise that raises questions in the reader's mind. For instance, "Sarah jumped down from her intricately-saddled elephant and handed the reins to a shirtless man she had never met before." Alternatively, "The cauldron boiled thickly and looked of effervescent syrup, but her heart sank quickly as she tossed it into the stew." Some of the most compelling emotions for both your characters and your readers are not necessarily the most pleasant. Play to people's desire for the unsavory and depressing by beginning with a scene that is completely absent of romance. For instance: "He woke up, rose slowly, counted the stains on his ceiling as he did every morning, glanced at the empty spot beside him, and decided not to eat breakfast." And of course: "Her cats began licking her ankles where their tongues had already thinned the fabric of her tights as soon as she entered. She sighed at the darkened patch of carpet in the center of the room, knowing she could remove the visual evidence, but never the odor." Both contemporary and classic story tellers can be a great source of inspiration. For instance, tune in to your local pop station. Depending on the level of literary legitimacy you're shooting for, radio singles are ripe for the romantic-one-liner picking. Take, for instance: "We were both young when I first saw you." Note that even the contemporary artists reference classic storytellers. Consider the lyrics from a popular radio single: "Marry me, Juliet, you'll never have to be alone." This line pays homage to Shakespeare by referencing a well known romantic narrative.

Q: If you have a tendency to shout when you're mad, you are likely an "emotional communicator." This means that you may tend to speak or act based on feelings and instincts, rather than reasoning things out. Taking a few moments to consider what you want to say can help you evaluate your reactions and communicate more calmly. Extend goodwill to the other person and apologize. Communicate that you realize you shouldn't have yelled and would like to discuss the matter more civilly moving forward. Ensure your tone and volume don't creep back into shouting territory by using a very quiet, "indoor" voice or a whisper. Speak as though you are in a library. If you are talking to your children, get in the habit of whispering or using a hushed voice when you are mad. Whispering has a double-purpose: it helps you keep your voice at an appropriate volume and it ensures that the other person will be fully tuned in so they can figure out what you're saying. Some of the words you use while communicating can actually make you even more angry. Drop absolute terms like "always," "never," "should," or "must." These words spark conflict because they are judgmental, accusatory, and leave little wiggle room.
A: Think before you speak. Apologize for yelling. Speak in a whisper. Remove absolute language.

Article: A narrative outline can help you break down the plot of your novel and make it easier for you to keep track of each element of the plot. Start by determining your novel's opening scene. This scene should establish character, setting, and a conflict or problem that is plaguing your main character. The opening scene will be the start of your first act and help to immerse your reader in your story. For example, you may start with a scene that introduces the reader to your main character and the setting of the novel, such as "Susan Miro who lives in seclusion in the jungle." You may then note a problem or conflict facing your main character, such as "Susan is struggling to survive in the jungle alone with very few supplies." The inciting incident is the problem or conflict that sets your main character on a specific path. This incident will then tie into the main conflict, allowing your reader to feel more tension as the story goes on. The inciting incident in your story may be the arrival of a new character that throws your main character off balance or a sudden change in the main character's surroundings that leads to a conflict. For example, you may have an inciting incident in your story when Susan gets an unexpected visit from the daughter she never knew. This could then lead into the main conflict of your novel. The main conflict should be intense for the main character and create a big issue that the character has to address or deal with in some way. Some writers call the main conflict the point of no return for the character, where they must take action and make a decision. For example, you may have a main conflict in your story where Susan has to decide to leave the jungle and live with her daughter in the city. This could create feelings of confusion, anxiety, and tension for both characters. The rising action in your outline should look at how the character acts after they have been confronted with the main conflict. There should be obstacles or challenges for the character during the rising action that make it difficult for them to achieve a goal or stick to their decision. Having rising action will help to up the stakes of the story and encourage the reader to keep reading. For example, you may have rising action where Susan fails to get a job in the city and does not seem able to bond with her daughter or her daughter's lifestyle. There may be a series of small incidents in the rising action that make Susan feel upset, anxious, or confused about her situation. The climax of the story is perhaps the most crucial element of the plot. It should be the most intense and important moment for your characters, where everything in the story comes to a head. The climax may be dramatic and intense or it may be more subtle. Either way, it should be the moment where the character is feeling the most emotion and the stakes are the highest for the story. For example, you may have a climax where Susan gets lost in the city and almost gets mugged. She may then have an emotional breakdown and tell her daughter she needs to return to the jungle. The final element in your narrative plot outline is the resolution. You may have falling action after the climax that then leads into a resolution of the conflict for the characters. The falling action may include the results of the climax. The resolution will tell your reader how each character ends up dealing with the climax of the story. For example, you may have falling action where Susan goes back to the jungle and tries to go back to her old way of life, away from her daughter. The resolution of the story may then be the daughter's decision to live with Susan in the jungle and adopt a more traditional lifestyle with Susan.
