Close your eyes and imagine yourself on another planet or travelling through space (e.g. in a spaceship.) Write three things that you: See: I could see someone playing a piano but not any piano a space piano Hear: I could hear someone playing a piano but not any piano it was a space piano Smell: I could smell the fowl stench of the sweet from the guy playing the space piano Write something happening in the first couple of lines in third person– something exciting is going to happening (elves getting up and disappearing, dancing) it does not have to be extreme, but it must get the story off with a hiss and a roar! Start in the middle of the story, ask the question, could I start further on in the story? Write long enough so that people want to read on, your main goal is to entice the reader to find out more. jerrimy and mr mgarith were just about to leave the atmosphere when bang jerrimy had hit a guy playing a space piano. There was majour dammage to the space craft because there was a fat guy playing the space piano. jerrimy and mr mgarith could smell the horred stench of the space pianist sweety armpits. although the space pianist was no more jerrimy could still hear his tune playing on.

jerrimy and mr mgarith just launched out of the atmosphere jerrimys heart was beating like a pig with a kid pulling its tail. Bang jerrimy had hit a guy playing a space piano he started figeting like a french man playing with his mostastch.

In stories there are three “h’s” HANDS – always doing something with your hands HEAD – What they are thinking HEART – How they react to situations *Copy and paste your story underneath the first attempt (Use the rule off line in tools) and rewrite the same story with your character thinking or feeling something. “Oh no,” he thought. She was curious This is the end A shiver ran up his spine (don’t always need to tell the reader that they are scared). Remember that it’s important to have your character involved in action. ***Now is the time to write w** **hat is going to happen next? Copy and paste your beginning, leave a line and write "And then...". Look at the example below to see how to do it.**

Once upon a time there were three little pigs etc. And then...they were told to find somewhere else to live by their mum. And then...they went to the market, the first little pig bought some straw etc. And then... the first little pig made his house out of straw, the second little pig made his house out of sticks etc. And then a wolf came along a asked to be let in, the first little pig refused entry and the wolf blew his house in. And then the wolf went to the second little pigs house etc.


 * What is going to happen next?

And then…

Is this exciting? Is something more exciting happening? How is the story going to develop – all we have to do is ask “and then…” Focus on the main point of what is going to happen – write the main points so that you have an idea of where your story is going, don’t write in the dialogue etc.**

 * Next task is to decide what has happened to your character in order to change something, e.g. a characters thoughts and feelings can change. The characters have to change so the reader wants to get interested. Characters have lots of problems and things going on, e.g. brothers and sister relationships, school, mum and dad…The difference does not have to be great, even a subtle change is good.

What did your character think before?

What do they think afterwards?

Write a few points – what is going to be the major change to their thoughts, attitudes and feelings.

What sort of person was your character at the start of the story?

What sort of person is your character at the finish of the story?

What are the advantages of having you in the story? One is pretending writing about somebody- the writer is god. The character is a person who develops as**
