What makes a good story

          A good story is something that can capture a readers attention and keep it. It can be either real or made up. Either way, a good story needs to use lots of detail. The reader should be able to picture exactly what the author is imagining as they right the story. A begining, a middle, and a end are also really important factors in a good story. The beginning has to be interesting enough to keep the reader wanting to read, by the middle the reader should be hooked and wanting to find out more, and the ending should tie the story all together and leave the reader feeling something about what they just read. There are many different kind of stories (suspense, romantic, adventurous, etc.) but all need to have a purpose. The author should put some sort of thought of how they want the reader to feel about the story before writing it.
