Brain Storm Techniques to Help You Create New Fiction Story Ideas!Brain storm techniques will help you develop new fiction story ideas to write about. Develop new story ideas by using fiction brainstorming techniques geared toward writers. Brainstorming is needed in the course of everyone's career when you find a point where the ideas just stop coming to mind! If you ever reached a null in your writing career, you know what I'm talking about. Sometimes writers need a little boost to get them going again. My creative brain storm techniques are used to set your imagination into motion to get you thinking about new story ideas. Whenever you reach a point of rest with your writing, such as waiting for a book to be proofread or published, don't stop writing! This is very important for every writer to understand. Avoid total separation from writing if at all possible. Taking too long of a break from your writing may cause writer's block, a serious crutch in your writing process that is definitely damaging to your productivity. So, during your downtime or wait time, you should be constantly thinking up new story ideas and taking action on those thoughts. The following is a series of questions you can ask yourself to start your imagination flowing: 1. What subject of fiction am I totally passionate about? (murder mystery, sci fi, romance...) 2. What part of that subject interests me the most? 3. In that sub-subject, what possible scenarios can I write about? Now, take your favorite scenario from the list and think about a theme that would best fit that scenario. 4. What is my theme? 5. What possible actions can happen to captivate my readers based on that scenario? 6. What action do I like the best? Take that subject, sub-subject, scenario, and action and write a keyword of phrase for each of them. Once they are written down, find a quiet place, sit down, and write as many corresponding words and phrases you can think of. Don't stop writing until a half an hour has elapsed or your hand hurts so bad that it starts to cramp. It is very important that you write using a pen or pencil, not on a computer. There is a connection between your brain and your fingers that can't be transposed using a keyboard. From the preceding brain storm techniques, start writing a description of you new story. Use words and phrases from your word crunch to build from. The description should be about 2 to 3 paragraphs and give a brief overview of what you want your story to be about. Write an introductory paragraph to set the scene, mood, and theme for your story. Once an introductory paragraph is written, you have successfully started a new story. Proceed by creating a basic outline for your book about all of the things you want to happen in your story in sequential order. Build your plot from start to finish, high points and low points. Now, get to writing your new story!
