Where to Find Story Writing Ideas
Jot things down
make a habit of been a keen observers take notes of all you have seen around the day from the exciting to the mundame things.
Ask “What if?"
from events you can make ideas for the story so you have to make the question "what if?" and you can make of a little event a really interesting story.
Pay attention
pay attention to all things that have passed around the day and based on all the activities you can have any idea for the story.
Creating a Story Framework
A story is not just a sequence of events one after another, you must make the character experience things outside of their daily life, problems and bad things even should not always have a happy ending.
The Fundamentals of Plot
The story should start in a relaxed way but it should increase the tension and the problems of our protagonist, so that the wheels turn until reaching a climax, and this is where our character takes a course towards good or evil.
Four Valuable Tips
Your character can’t be perfect.
The perfect person does not exist so the character must be natural, he must be a person with problems and good things in his life, he cannot have only good things or only bad things.
Your character has to feel some discomfort.
the character has a personality, a way of being and that way of being has to lead him to problems and situations with difficulties, so we have to make him feel dissatisfied.
Where is your story taking place?
is to give the specific and detailed place, explaining how it is and its atmosphere.
Whatever you’re working on, finish it.
You must make a story on paper to have a beginning and an end as a base, after having the story in this way you must rewrite it and read it to have the final story.
