what does furthering the plot mean?

Question

Answer 1

When you write a story, you can outline where the story starts , where it is going, and how you will end it.
The plot is the story line ---what happens in the story.
Writing which furthers the plot is writing which has a direct bearing on the story. Any information you include which gives your readers more understanding of the story "furthers the plot".

Some passages may be necessary to set the scene for your story or set the emotional tone, but aren't really necessary to tell the story. These passages do not further the plot.
In general, if you want to keep the reader's attention in fiction writing, most of your writing should do something to further the plot, move the story along.
If a passage does not further the plot, you had better have a good reason for including it.

Answer 2

It means taking the plot further.

Answer 3

it means 'the plot thickens!!' moving the plot along, getting the characters more involved in what the story is about.
at least that's what i imagine it means.
