Create a story

What does a story need?

There is always a story to tell, so you can write down a couple of ideas such as:

  • What are the main characters?
  • What do they want?
  • Where are them? What is the setting?
  • What happens that changes everything?
  • Where do they end up?
  • How do they get there?

What parts does a story have?

Beginning

Here is where we introduce the characters and the setting of our story.

Middle

Here is where something happens... magic, a problem...!

End

Here is where the story wraps up and all of the problems are solved (or not! ;)).

How can I start?

If you need additional help for your story, you can use any of the available games and apps:

Now that you're ready... here you can start writing the plot for your story!
