Q4. What types of conflict do you find the most powerful? Internal/external? Big or small?

Eh?

I don't tend to find conflict particularly powerful, but the conflicts I do engage with emotionally tend to be internal and personal.

Q3. Do all stories need conflict to work?

I'm inclined to say 'yes, but...'

I don't think it's possible to write a story without conflict, but it is possible to write a story with incidental conflict or without a central conflict. Conflict is simply a constant of the world and in fiction conflict has come to be defined incredibly loosely. But most people who say you need conflict mean you need a central conflict or a story needs to revolve around conflict, and I strongly disagree with that.
