for authors / compo writers
intro
the start must hook the reader to continue reading the story
you cannot afford to take chances as you only have a few seconds to capture their attention
-
for compo writers
-you must also not go fully fledged on the intro or else the climax will not be interesting.
-
for authors
-DO NOT set about the story of your protagonist's past so fast here, as the reader has just started reading this book, or if you want to do that,at least make it short and simple to give your reader some depth on the protagonist is like now
to get a reader hooked, you can start with, example
"I opened the wrapper"
the reader will be asking
why
are you opening the wrapper,
what
is inside the wrapper,
who
is opening it,
when
did you open the wrapper and
where
are you. Providing the reader with many questions get them hooked and want to find out more about what you are writing
rising action
this also like the intro, you cannot go full fledged on this
this is supposed to lead up to the climax, thus you must end this with a way to excite the reader for the climax
the way you write must also not bore the reader as now you have gotten their attention, you cannot waste it. put some clues for the reader
climax
this is the most important part of the story and must not be ignored by the writer as another paragraph
-
for compo writers
-this should be the part where the problem should be faced and the protagonist does not know what to do/ is trying to solve the problem
-
for compo writers
-do not come up with a boring problem like oh the cookies have been dropped on the floor as these types of problems can be easily solved
-
for compo writers
-even if you are writing on a boring problem, try to make it as interesting as you can
this part must be fully fleshed out until its very interesting
falling action
once your done with the climax it does not mean you can slack off and make a lousy ending.
this paragraph involves the protagonist solving the problem/the problem just simply gets solved. Although this might sound very easy to do, it's not.
this must really tie up all loose ends whether its a mystery or secret etc
conclusion
this is very important for every single story/composition as this leaves the reader with a sense of what the book/composition is like.
-
for authors
- if the ending is put out very lazily, the reader will be disappointed in this book and not read any of your other books (if you are going to write any)
-
for authors
- remember this saying: "nobody reads a novel to get to the middle. They read it to get to the end. If the ending is a let down, they won't buy it anymore. your first chapter sells your book, your last chapter will sell your next book." - Mickey Spillane
not all compositions or stories can end with a 'happily ever after' or at least in a way a ' happily ever after'
-
for compo writers
- if you plan on using a saying for the ending, I think its boring. At least in my opinion.
overall story/composition
last words for authors
authors, the thing is you don't need to take this seriously as this my own opinion but i hope this helped you at least a bit
last words for compo writers
overall the details in this coggle is what your composition could be better and if you don't think this helped then you can do some research.
