Conflict
I'm really good at writing conflict, but I do not like conflict in my own life. I've met other writers with similar issues. I wonder if that's why so many great writers were also known to be either brawlers or drinkers or both? (That's a tongue-in-cheek musing, but one does wonder about such things.) I suspect that we writers all need to allow our life conflicts to lead us to an understanding of what can make our story plots more palpable and believable.
