Tutorial: How to write a story?

Twilight, Harry Potter and countless other books on the shelf of a rigid counter. These authors have done it, even though they are actually of other people . Distinguish
This is what one inevitably the question, "What was the trick

• "How did you manage to write such a book?"

Even Stephenie Meyer evokes with her words
"I had not planned to write a book!"

the inevitable feeling that is inventing stories and writing a children's game and bring each a best-selling could be applicable if he wanted to.

But what amounts to the whole, if one succumbs to such misconceptions?

• disappointment
• demotivation
• Kreatief

We do not know where to begin.

There is so much to consider:

• realistic main characters
• gripping, not 0815 - Stories
• traceability of action
• minor characters
• interpersonal relationships
• "bad guys"
• venues cities (in fantasy all the worlds )
• turning and highlights
• conflicts

So it is no wonder that raises the next person to "It's very simple," with such a - setting approaching the matter is, hit the pin on the table and adopt .

from which you can then develop a story?

• an idea
• a brief image in my head
• a short dialogue
• a property of the person
• a scene

You may have even a clear idea of the story and think to yourself:

"It will be incredible!"

Since you are not alone.

There are countless writers of tomorrow, who sit at the desk and meet the rigid blank white page. The white sheet stares back. Silence.

And inevitably comes the question:

"Where you shall begin only And above all, as ?"

you think of other famous works and compare them with your story. You come to brood and the page remains blank.

GAME OVER.

Stop!

If there's one that you should consider when writing, then it is this: Go

• not be hard on yourself in court
• Do not waste the thought that your story might not be good enough
• Do not try to be the final finished story conjure

Why all this?

If you go immediately approached with critical thinking in the whole thing, then you choke every new idea in the bud, because it appears you are not good enough. So you despise many ideas that could turn out later, perhaps as very useful. So pack the critic in you again. The other time is used. Do not worry.

And even if you have vorzuweisen no final version of the story in mind, this is not a cause for concern. On the contrary, you had the full version of the story after a few minutes in the head, would mean to try jumping on the top floor a skyscraper the same. And that's very unlikely, right? And moreover, far from the ways of man.

So what makes a clever man first if he wants to the top floor?
Right. He walks through the door, then down the hall. Then he goes up the stairs step by step. (We'd like to think that the lift is broken) or he takes the functional lift and hey presto, he's there.

What we learn from this?
your "now" - Spring attempt would remain fruitless. You would not budge. ie the out beatings the full version of the story in your head is completely pointless.
But a laborious, tedious climb would bring up all the way up to the desired destination.

What helps me in my goal to get a finished version of history?

idea
leave with no excessive demands, the basic idea build up over time.

phases and the progressive development

With each step and each subsequent phase, the story perfect and precise.

critic in the creation phase tabbu

The critic in the author should not be too fast and too hard on yourself. Many good ideas be stifled by their own fear of ridicule and rejection in the bud, before they can mature. Later there is still time for cuts and corrections.

Later: own discernment

The more you annährst the final version, the stronger flows into it own critical capacity and limits the spontaneous inventions that were created at the beginning of the story, a.

So also will prevent your story is not illogical losing.

Most artists could bring their works only through excellent self-criticism in the right lot, otherwise, would be got out of their vast designs.

imagination and creativity

As an author, you should not let the initial joy of imaginative creation take.

questioning

An Example for a basic idea:

"My idea is the story of a family that is in trouble and plans ..."

intends What the family and, above all, who?

For each answer new questions.

give way you can formulate the idea and gather a lot of material.

Of course the topic of history writing far too complex to be acting in a single post.

Well, good luck for the creation story
