I would think there are lots of stories, but only three plots. Man vs man, man vs nature, and man vs himself. What is the other one?

Man vs Woman

[JoeFromSidney]

I would think there are lots of stories, but only three plots. Man vs man, man vs nature, and man vs himself.

Actually, Robert Heinlein said there were only three stories: boy meets girl, the little tailor (i.e. the little man who does something big), and the man who learned better. I found that most of my published stores were in the third category. The novel I'm currently working on turned out to be in that category, too.
