A good story is better than life. It allows us access to our hero’s thoughts and motivations. While real people often hide behind carefully crafted facades. Exciting stories don’t waste time with boring and mundane aspects of our daily routines. If a character takes a shower, you can count on a shocking development ensuing. When the antagonist confronts our beloved protagonist, our hero always has the best responses.
Well-written tales are laser-focused, they revolve around a major theme, and present a satisfying resolution, we seldom experience outside of a novel. The scenery is richer. Men are handsome, women are beautiful, and the plot pushes them along a prescribed path. It betrays the uncertainty we face. A good story resembles our favorite meal, complete with cake for dessert.
Will your story serve cake?
