《How To Write A Book》7-The story
Advertisement
So, now you can start writing your story.
How to begin:
There are many ways to start a story.
Well, you can start with a normal day of you characterâs life. Thatâs important to show people how her /his normal life is.
You can also start with something she/he will never forget. For example:
· Her/His car accident
· Her/his momâs death
· He/she wakes up in the hospital
· The day the guy/girl she/he loves got married
· The day she/he met someone special
Personally, I love when people start their story with one word. Iâll give you an example from âBlindâ by bestbenarry
âSilence. Thatâs all I hear. Nothing. Thatâs all I see.â
I love the way she starts her story. Itâs perfect! Itâs simple and says everything. In my opinion this is more difficult to do.
It doesnât matter how youâre going to start. You only have to know one thing: your readers have to know who your character is in the beginning of the story. The beginning of the story is important because itâs here where you can write how youâre character acts in different situations. Is your character a lonely person, a shy person, an outgoing person, a popular person? Your readers will discover this is in the beginning. Once again do not start your story with: âHey! Iâm Caroline, Iâm 18 years old, I live with my parents in California and Iâm beautiful because I have pink eyes and purple hair.â NO!
Another thing you shouldnât do, especially if youâre writing a love story, is make your main character fall in love with the guy in the beginning. I hate that! Unless your character is in love with him for a long time, you shouldnât make her fall in love in the beginning.

The middle of the story:
After introducing your character you have to start writing the story. If youâre writing an adventure story, your characterâs adventure has to start now! If youâre writing a love story now is the perfect time for your main character fall in love with her/his love interest. If youâre writing a horror story now is the perfect time for strange things start to happen.
The end of the story:
Your character dies. Your character marries with her/his love interest and they live happily ever after. Your character goes to jail.
Something special is important for the end of the story. If youâre thinking about writing a sequel to your book then you shouldnât reveal everything in your first book. You have to leave something to discover so people have to read your second book to find out.
Itâs important to notice this: Your character is no longer that innocent girl from the beginning or your character isnât that player guy anymore. What Iâm trying to say is, your character has to be different by the end of the story. Thatâs why you canât have perfect people in your story. If you have a perfect person then the person canât change anymore because he/she is perfect.

Softest Lips | on hold
𝐒𝐩𝐢𝐧-𝐨𝐟𝐟 𝐭𝐨 𝐈𝐧 𝐇𝐞𝐫 𝐌𝐢𝐧𝐝-"I just kissed the softest lips that god has ever madeAnd I am so in love with the girl to whom these lips he gave." Orianne was a lover girl, whom some considered a hopeless romantic, but she wouldn't dare let the opinions of others knock her off her pivot. She was a young woman who knew what she wanted, and to her, there was nothing wrong with that. She desired the husband, children, dates, random gifts, trips, family outings, and so on.Some would say the reason she can't keep a man is because her standards are high. Which is a ridiculous take. Yes, her standards may be "high," but that's because her father set the tone. She knows what she wants and how she's supposed to be treated, and if you're not giving her that, then you have to go. Out of the few men she has dealt with, she lets them know beforehand what she wants, and it's not her fault that they choose to lead her on under the impression that they wanted the same thing. Another reason men tend to leave her alone is because she's a woman of status, a woman of her word, and a woman about her business. She handles her own and has her own which tends to bruise a man's ego. When asked what she brings to the table, she has a solid answer. She doesn't just bring herself or her body-that's the bonus-she brings communication, trust, comprehension, stability, submission, commitment, and so on. The main question of the matter is, how will Miss. Orianne react when a 19 year old wants to sweep her off her feet and give her everything she wants and more?𝐜𝐨𝐯𝐞𝐫 𝐛𝐲: me
