Have you ever considered creating a book? How about diving into the world of digital storytelling?
What unique advantages do digital books offer that traditional printed books do not? How can we ensure books are accessible to everyone?
Creating a Fictional Story
When developing a fictional story, we typically begin by outlining the plot, characters, and setting. We then structure the events for the beginning, middle, and end. As students or creative educators, having a structured guide can be invaluable for organizing a story cohesively.
The Story Spine
The "story spine" serves as a framework to steer the narrative. It provides a series of starting phrases to shape the plot. These prompts assist writers in maintaining a clear and logical storyline. The story spine sentence frames include:
- Once upon a time…
- Every day…
- Until one day…
- Because of that…
- Until finally…
- Ever since then…
