How to avoid gaps in your plot
A plot hole, similar to a glaring language structure or typographical mistake, removes your reader from the story. Read the definitions of kinds of plot holes below:
Keep a scene-by-scene rundown
You might be tired of the ‘plotter versus pantser’ banter. Regardless of whether it is smarter to plot your story in full, or compose ‘on a whim’, not knowing ahead of time where your pen/console will lead. Despite which technique you like, having a concise scene-by-scene rundown sketching out what occurs in each aspect of your story (and which characters are included) is one approach to maintain a strategic distance from a major plot gap. Regardless of whether you didn’t begin drafting with a scene synopsis, you can at present make one.
Build character profiles
Creating itemized character profiles is another approach to evade plot openings. A compact outline for each character will assist you with recollecting who has what backstory, what objectives, inspirations, physical credits and different subtleties. At whatever point you concoct another character at the time, make a note to build up a profile for them on the off chance that you would prefer not to break the progression of drafting the current scene.
Make a reference book of your reality
Certain classifications, for example, dream and science fiction, are especially inclined to plot gaps because of the world structure included. One path around the trap of plot openings is to build up your own reality reference book. For each imagined area, compose a concise rundown of key places inside said area.
Read and take notes
Being a decent supervisor implies being a decent peruser. An attentive peruser. In the event that your original copy has run into a plot gap impasse, prevent and read from the beginning.
As you read, ask:
Are the occasions of this part consistent (would i be able to clarify why every occasion happens according to earlier or looming occasions?)
Is there anything somewhere else in the story that negates this scene and makes its occasions confounding?
Do the unchangeable realities about each character stay steady (E.g. backstory and past decisions, data they approach (and data they don’t)?
