In our Junior year of English, our teacher, Mrs. Gillmore, has assigned us to use our imaginative mind and create a short story. We are to write about a fictional character using a rising action, conflict, and resolution. With this, we are also to create a scene and plot of what the story is about, leaving a theme for us to learn.
Using techniques that I have recently learned over the years, I was able to quickly think of a character of what I envisioned my story to be. It was a hard process of figuring out what it will be about. Although, the story might not be clear in my mind, it should get easier as I continue on with typing the story and discovering new approaches.
Finding the plot of the story was most difficult, to be honest. I do not have a wondering mind with imaginative stories that could quickly appear in my head, although with the experiences that I've had in my life, I used those memories to create a story line. Before I could write the plot, I had to find a character. A character with a name and meaning. It became frustrating as I sat and sat until I finally found my character.
Let me introduce you to Aphrodite, a girl who was antisocial. During her high school years, all she had was a book in her hands and an a Kindle tucked nicely inside her monochromatic one strapped backpack, which was there just incase she needed it. Although she might seem as if she had no one there to accompany her, there was Jenna, a girl who became friends wih Aphrodite the minute they sat at the very same table in Mrs. Gillmore's first grade class.
The overall story should turn out pretty well. By trying my hardest with strong motivations to finish with an amazing ending line, I should get a decent grade for this story. Writing a story is not always easy. Wish me luck.
