Epic/Novel length Stories:
-Make a basic outline of your plot and main characters before you even start to write. Without these, your story is bound to go the wrong way.
-With the basic outline, begin to developpe an idea, which should be returned to at many points in the story. As for your characters, developpe specific traits that make the characters unique and likeable.
-Begin writing, and use DETAIL. Short stories don't rely on detail, but as an epic, your story needs detail and character developpement to pull through.
-Write about something that you find interesting. If you don't like it, but you're doing it to get other people to read it, you're lieing to yourself.
-Have fun writing, and express yourself.
More to come in the future, these are the basics.
