LogicYour story should be plausible


Logic

Your story should be plausible, believable. Your character's NFL Jerseysmotivation should make sense to your readers. They should be able to understand why a character wants a particular goal. The obstacles between the character and his or her goal should be believable, expected in a way. And your character's actions should always be consistent given their background, personality and feelings.

Even fantasy needs be logical. Your readers should be able to believe that the events in your story are possible given the world you've created.

Sentence Structure

Consider the way your sentences are written. Do they make sense?

Beware of dangling modifiers.

For example:
"Having been thrown into the air, the dog caught the ball Maurice Jones Drew Womens Jersey. "

In this sentence, the subject (the dog) is the 'doer' of the main clause - or action - (caught the ball). In the modifying part of this sentence (having been thrown into the air) the 'doer' of the main clause is not clearly stated. It does not directly relate to the subject of the main clause, and so, it would be considered a dangling modifier.

A good sentence can be weakened by the last word. A strong sentence should end on a strong word, not tail off because of poor word choice.

Consider - It was a mystery where the children were Peyton Manning Youth Jersey.
Substitute - Where the children were was a mystery.

And remember that the most important words of a sentence should go at the end. The most important sentence should go at the end of a paragraph.

If you want to emphasize something put it at the end of the sentence.

Show Don't Tell
