That was interesting, but a little too basic to be useful. I thought the meta-plot was the best information on the page (although not new news). My wife and I rather enjoyed 20 Master Plots and How to Build Them by Ronald B. Tobias. It was good for brainstorming plot ideas.

I first saw the categorizing of plots in Save the Cat which has a neat little list, although not so applicable to novels. Really fascinating stuff when you start looking into it.

Interesting. I've always heard that there are only two.
1. A stranger comes to town.
2. The quest.
Of course, in those cases, you have to be kind of liberal in your interpretation of those ideas. The stranger that comes to town might be a disease. Or zombies. Or simply discovering that your husband is not who you thought he was. You know...
