Plotting Around Character Flaws

So, you have your character sketch from last week. Now what?

Now we look at the sketch and at those flaws, and ask, "What plot ideas come from these flaws?"

If someone is vain, how does vanity affect story? If someone is scared of bugs, what happens when their house is infested? How do flaws give you story and affect the story you have?

Characters don't exist in a vacuum. If you have multiple characters, where their flaws intersect is where story happens.

Writing prompt: Take your character sketch and come up with some plot ideas based on the flaws. What makes their life difficult? What can stand between them and their objectives?
