What makes a good story
What makes a good story?
In a story you need Theme, Plot , Story structure ,Characters ,Setting ,Style&Tone. We need to
know who is the protagonist , and what does he or she want? In the beginning of the story , what
morally significant actions has he or she already taken towards the goal?
Why all the above I mention are important to make a good story? Because the theme of the story
illustrate what the author want to deliver to the readers. As for plot, it shows most often about a
conflict or a struggle that the main character goes through. Thirdly, story structure is deciding about
writing the story either in "first person" or in "third person" point of view. Characters is one of the
most important element to make a good story, as it should be someone readers can feel something
in common with. And now its setting, setting is to set the story in a place and time that will be
interesting or familiar. Last but not least, style&tone. Style&tone are to use the most suitable
language that feels right for the story and use actions and speech to let readers know what's
happening by showing not telling.
