What makes it a story? September 20, 2008

I’ve been thinking about what makes a story interesting. In the end, it’s really the juxtaposition of two opposing points that in isolation are often very normal on their own

For example, I have three children. Put us in a rural area (which is where we were started) and that size fmaily seems normal. Move us to a big city, and it’s a regular comment to us at cafes that I have a large family

Easiest way to find a new story? Find the point of difference.
