How To Develop A Dynamic Story




By Kay Dalton


A story is a great way of telling others what you think. Here are a few tips to help you make a story really lively.

First of all, know the purpose of the story. What is the point you want to get across? You should direct the story telling to make sure your point will be obvious.

Create the backdrop. Describe the setting so that it can be easily imagined by your audience. What is the time, location, weather? How was the situation?

Let your audience know who was involved. Help your audience to picture the important characters through detailed descriptions. Describe your characters' personalities, their quirks, and their relationships. You can use different voices and gestures for each one.

Begin the Journey. What is the aim of this journey? What are the tests that will be encountered?

Face the challenges. At this point, bring in an exciting event to make things interesting. This could be a person, a self limiting belief, or a challenge to overcome. To make it funny, exaggerate.

Overcome the obstacles. What is needed to defeat the challenge? What inner resources did you have to summon? Did someone help you? A hero? Or you? Be exact. Break your solution down into a few steps in sequence. You get your point across in this part.

Make an ending for the story. How did things go? Finish everything, like what happened to the other characters? What about the hero?

Make the point. It's better to have just one point in a story. Write out and memorize the point, work on the words to make it simple and easy to remember. Look for a catchy phrase.

Then, you ask the audience a question. Make your story personal to the audience. "Has that ever happened to you?" Turn the point you want to get across into a inquisition. Make them react!

Practice, practice, practice. Tell your stories to anyone who is willing to listen. You should allow them to act as your critics and repeat your story with revisions according to their criticisms. You do this to improve yourself.

Keep in mind that your next story will always be better than the last!
