Your Story Summary
|
Everyone has a story to tell. Creative writing is all about the human experience. But those stories should only be told if
they are interesting, hold the reader’s attention and perhaps imagination, and are truly worthy of telling. How do you
develop the skill to write a story that is compelling reading? Your Story will guide you through the art of writing fiction—short story or novel. You will learn how to develop a plot that will take your characters wherever you want them to go. By following the advice in this book, you will learn how to develop your characters. You will learn to create real people. They will work, they will have relationships, sometimes broken relationships, sometimes happy ones. They will have hobbies, they will be big or small, tall or short. Your characters must say something. But it’s how they speak that can convey so much information to the reader. Proper character dialogue actually tells the reader something important, and moves the story along. Your Story will show you how to develop effective dialogue. All stories take place within a setting. Where is your story set? Is it a historic country town? Or squashed into a tiny corner of some horrible, smoky, filthy city? Learn how to develop a setting your readers will be able to relate to. Bring your characters into the setting. You will make them do something. This is where the action begins. It’s the plot, or the story. And it is here too that you can really let your mind run away with your story. Make your characters old fashioned. Make them sexy. Vibrant. Devious. Unscrupulous. Make them loveable. Make them bore people in their environment. Make them stimulate those around them. Make them ... well, it’s your story. Your characters will do exactly as you tell them. They will live, and breathe, just like real people. They will speak like real people. This book will be suitable to anyone just beginning to write fiction. Your Story contains 63 pages.
