 Which Comes First: Plot or Character? - Katrina Kittle
 
 Much like the chicken and the egg question, the answer to "which comes first — plot or character?" troubles many writers and causes needless anxiety. This session will contend that it doesn't matter which comes first because they are essentially the same thing. A well-structured plot will naturally unfold if the writer focuses on some "simple" questions about character motivation. Whether deep in a work in progress, or just beginning to form an idea, writers will leave with a clear road map for their story that will keep a plot moving forward and avoid meandering detours.
