Thank you Austin Kleon! I’ve been on a tear reading his books over the past week. Currently, I’m in the middle of Show Your Work. I’m at the chapter where he discusses how to tell a good story. He gives multiple basic structures anyone can use to create their own story. I’m going to try using one of these formulas to write my own story. In particular, I will be using the fairy tale structure.
I’m going to work to complete that within the next few days. I’ve never tried writing a short story before so I’m assuming the outcome will be atrocious. Wish me luck!
P.S. Once I finish reading Show Your Work I’ll post a review.
Go check out Austin!
