EXAMPLE:

- HORROR -

Introduction: Molly and Tina (sisters) are introduced at start, Evil traces will be found throughout the beginning, Ghost is seen in a split second, then transition into middle.

Middle: Tina sees ghost, becomes ghost, now evil spirits haunt the house, Molly is the only survivor, and is hiding from ghost, tries to defeat, transition to conclusion.

Conclusion: Molly uses old ghost gun, found in basement, kills ghost, frees Tina, final ending the ghost's sister comes, cliffhanger ending.

Title - Ghost vs sisters.

By choosing my genre, I knew that I wanted to write a horror book.  That little plan above only took me about 5 minutes and that is another thing I will show you in the next chapter.
