Story

Every story must have five things. Firstly, a beginning. You must introduce the characters and lay down a plot. Second, a challenge. The main character must go on some kind of journey, physically or mentally. Next, the hero must appear to win. It must seem like everything is going fine and there is no really threat. Then the hero appears to loose. This is the most important part of a story. There has to be that question. Can the hero really lose? Is the hero going to die or loose everything? But, of course, then comes the final part. The hero wins. Because, you can’t have a story where the hero looses. Good must always win. Right?
