How to Write a Good Story

I have been writing story’s for almost 3 years now and there are a couple of tips to remember.

“Five – The man knew not what he did.
Four- It was so cruel and strange.
Three- For he was once a friend.
Two – Could he not feel my pain?
One- Who is truly the monster?

The man clenched his heart and felt the pulsation become stronger. He knew time was here. As he lifted his right arm away from his chest he began to reach for the sky. The flesh of his body turned into a sickly green. His left arm lunged toward the ground supporting his shrinking legs and his growing mass. His muscles began to bulge. He felt the power. He felt the strength. He felt the over-whelming dread.  
Spikes emerged from the skin on his arms. His face shrived into a monster’s. He knew what his friend had done, but he forgave. He forgave, at one’s last memories, for men are not those who begin the battles but those who end them.
I was glad it is I who am the man. For beginning it, the monster can only cause problems.”

This is a story I wrote on a car trip. 

1. Find a topic or theme that interests you or inspires any emotion.
2. Use the emotion to write the paper. On many of my compositions I use my anger or passion to write instead of my mind.
3. In this story it has an opener in which you start to wonder what is happening. Make sure you have something powerful to begin and to end the piece.
4. Try to end the story with a contemplation or something for us to ponder about. This allows us to analyze the world and it’s happening. Make sure you think about it to so you add on or understand what goes through some peoples head.
5. Make sure you read it out loud so that you can spot any mistakes or stupid errors.
6. Spell Checker, is a good friend but make sure everything is spelt, punctuated and capitalized. This is because if you don’t you can look like a total fool.

Hopefully This Helps.
