Thank you for making this.

I haven't actually crystallized a way to write a story. What I want to do is write the entire story and all of the story beats on paper. I have done this only once. The rest of the time, I write when I am angry or feel trapped. It usually lightens my mood when this happens. This means that the main character usually fails in some way by the end. I wrote a story for a contest and I don't like it because it feels artificial. I had no reason to write it.

I've noticed now that I also write stories connected to specific places. Knowing this, I will write a story in my house. (The contest one is in some unknown place.)
