Story Conflict Examples
Here is an example of what our tool can do!We typed:A mother, daughter, and money
Here is what our tool generated:Carla had always been close with her mother, but things had been tense between them lately. Carla had recently lost her job and was struggling to pay her bills. On the other hand, her mother had always been well-off and never had to worry about money.
One day, Carla's mother offered to lend her some money to help her out. At first, Carla was grateful for the offer, but as the conversation continued, she realized that her mother had a lot of strings attached to the loan. Her mother wanted to have control over how Carla spent the money, and she wanted to make sure Carla paid her back in total, with interest.
Carla felt insulted and hurt by her mother's lack of trust and control over her finances. She felt like her mother was treating her like a child and didn't respect her ability to make her own financial decisions. The more they talked, the more heated the argument became.
In the end, Carla declined her mother's offer and found another way to make ends meet. She knew it would be a struggle but also knew she couldn't let her mother's controlling behavior dictate her life.
We typed:A worker and boss
Here is what our tool generated:John was a hard worker and had been with the company for years. He had always been a loyal employee and had never had any problems with his boss, until now.
One day, John's boss called him into his office and told him that he was being let go. John was shocked and asked why. His boss said that the company was downsizing and they needed to cut costs. John was devastated and felt betrayed by his boss.
John tried to reason with his boss and asked if there was anything he could do to keep his job. His boss said no and told him to pack up his things and leave immediately.
John was angry and hurt by his boss's decision. He felt like he had been treated unfairly and didn't deserve to be fired. He also felt like his boss didn't appreciate all the hard work he had put in over the years.
In the end, John decided to take legal action against his boss for wrongful termination. He knew it would be a long and difficult process, but he was determined to fight for what he believed was right.
