Plot structure

At some point in our lives - whether at school, or a writing site - we've seen a plot diagram. The one above is simple- there are more complicated ones to be found with a simple web search, but the basic points of plot structure are the same.

Our challenge is to take your one of your stories' plots and place it on the diagram (either visually, or writing about it, or both).

What parts of your story are exposition? What constitutes the rising action (conflict)? Where is your story's climax? What events are part of the falling action? What is your conclusion? If you are missing some of these classic plot elements, it's a good time to plan them out.
