Why does everyone like listening to stories?

Many people say that only children like to listen to stories. In fact, listening to stories is human nature, regardless of age.

Children like to hear stories about good people defeating bad people. If you tell stories about bad people defeating good people, she doesn't like to hear them, which is beyond her cognitive range.

Adults like to listen to stories that interest them. If they are not interested, she won't listen.

Writing needs examples and stories to support our point of view, and appropriate cases should be used. It is easy for people to accept reasoning in the way people like.

Many people will make a mistake. Without the previous story, they will talk about it directly, just like the slogan said before. For example, if you want to comment on someone who is inspirational, how about saying so-and-so as soon as you start? How's it going?

You can use storytelling skills to tell a story. To describe what such a person has done will make people feel that he is very inspirational, so that people will be convinced.

For example, an author wants to appeal to everyone to write. She introduces an inspirational boss to beginners about her writing process and the writer's specific practices. In order to give beginners more encouragement, the author should write a story that is biased towards what she did in the process of becoming a writer, rather than telling her feelings, life and family.

Beginners only pay attention to her writing process, as well as the author's experience. Can her methods inspire them?

If you use stories to lead your writing, you must study what stories your readers like to listen to, not what stories the author tells.

For example, treasure mothers pay too much attention to children's education, the relationship between husband and wife, and the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law.

Today, I listened to All Skills of Best-selling Writers. Because the author is a short story book, he introduced the writing skills of fictional novels.

Although many stories are not true, they can also be used as a reference. A novel tells a story, which we will not only use in writing, but also often read fiction in reading.

in his book, he pointed out that it is necessary to know what kind of fun a work should provide to the author. There are two kinds.

1. Changing novels

For example, in the novel in the story, there is a plot in which the hero works for a company and is now facing the risk of bankruptcy, but the hero has no experience, so what should the hero become in order to resolve this crisis? This is a point that readers expect.

applied to reality, if we encounter such problems, how should we deal with them? Will there be a better solution? Or what methods and skills can be used for reference.

2. Mystery novel

A murder case happened. Who is the murderer? For example, in the arson case of Hangzhou nanny, many people are reasoning about who is the murderer and who used what means behind it. When I was a child, I watched TV dramas.

There are also many mysteries in our life, which is one reason why many people like to listen to the unsolved mysteries of the world, because everyone can't explain them, and they rely on their own worldview to interpret them, which satisfies people's curiosity.

There must be a "thorn" in telling a story, which is the point that most touches the reader's heart. For example, there is a scene in this story that is particularly touching, or the story gives people the feeling of loyalty, which is what is the core of your writing this story.

All writing forms are similar. Learning novel writing skills can also help us write other works better, but we should also dabble in more books in different fields.
