Elements of Story Writing Discussed by HG Nadel
When it comes to story writing, you need to make sure of including the five elements of a story. You must have encountered all of these in the books you have been through. So, if you want to write your own, HG Nadel suggests you to make sure add these five elements of a story:
Character: This is the first of the five elements of a story and probably the most important. A character is a person, animal or thing which takes part in the story. The hero, heroine, villain and their helpers are all necessary to make a great story.
Setting: This describes the time and place of the story. However, whereas the time may be stated upfront, many authors rely on describing the scenery rather than stating the exact location. This helps the reader visualize scenes more easily, thus making him more involved in the story.
Plot: Without this, no story can be complete. A plot is the events and actions which are performed to control the conflict. There are different ways of devising a plot, one of these is to plan it out before penning it, whereas another is to just write what comes to your mind. Try each and see which one will produce the best results for you.
Conflict: In this element, the main character ends up struggling against another vital character, force of nature or the society. Shakespeare's Hamlet showed more than one type of conflict, but the most prominent of these was the one Hamlet had with himself.
Theme: The last but not the least of the five elements of a story is the theme. This is basically the central idea of the whole story.
Keep these five elements of a story in your mind, and you will definitely have a best seller coming up quite soon.
