What are some ideas for getting started writing a fictional story?

Answer by  Marie (778)

A great technique for finding ideas for a fictional story is to look at real life stories for inspiration. Look at news stories that interest you, and without researching the real elements, imagine who the people are and what their lives are like. How did they come into the circumstance described in the news story?
