Your character broke both legs in a water skiing accident and is bedridden for the next month. Bored with TV, she sets up her telescope to watch the happenings in her neighborhood and witnesses a crime in the home across the street.
One Stop for Writers
Write the scene of discovery (i.e., tell a story), or brainstorm and create a list of related ideas.
Here’s five story elements to consider:
- Character
- Setting
- Plot
- Conflict
- Resolution
Never forget, writing is a process. The first draft is always a mess.
The first draft of anything is shit.
Ernest Hemingway
