Writing a story about yourself is easy enough, but making it attractive to the reader is a more difficult task. After all, your life is undoubtedly interesting for yourself, as well as for relatives and friends, but strangers must also be intrigued.
Instructions
Step 1
Be sure to think over the plot, because without it your idea will be doomed to failure. Many people believe that the story will be interesting to readers only due to the excellent writing style. However, a two-page description of his own memories is unlikely to interest a person, they are more likely to put him to sleep. Therefore, think over the intrigue, interest your reader from the very beginning, let him eagerly “swallow” each new twist of the storyline. Of course, descriptive moments and your experiences, feelings, thoughts are also important. Only all this should be in moderation.
Step 2
The plot cannot save the story if you write it "sloppy". The reader will forgive grammatical errors, but incorrectly formed direct speech, missing commas and lexical errors will nullify all your efforts. A person will never read a story that corresponds to the level of presentation of an eighth grade student. Therefore, watch your writing style, put yourself in the shoes of the person reading.
Step 3
You can purchase a textbook for yourself that teaches you how to write advertising texts. There are many great examples of how to write interesting and engaging text. The very first sentence should pique the interest of the reader. Your task in this case is to make him read his own work to the very end.
Step 4
Don't talk a little, make your readers jittery. Understatement is a great technique that many professional writers enjoy using. If a person, after reading your story, begins to think about your fate, to think about what will happen next, then your work turned out to be successful.
Step 5
Sincerity and fullness of feelings captivate, which is why first-person stories are often very popular. Write about yourself, just state all the facts in an interesting, competent and stylish way, using all literary techniques. Make your reader laugh, sad, and empathize with your feelings. If your work is capable of evoking such emotions, then consider that the task is completed.
