Short Story Planner
Build your story
A short story usually has characters in a setting, a problem, events that develop the problem, and a resolution. Plan how these parts will connect.
Map the events
Plan events that lead from the opening to the resolution. Each event should move the story forward.
- At first
- A moment later
- Meanwhile
- Afterwards
- Eventually
Draft and review
Use your plan to write an opening paragraph of about four to six sentences. Then check that your choices help the reader picture the story and follow its events.
