A Professional Tip To Make Your Story More Interesting

Add dinosaurs to your story.

 

Dinosaurs are instant attention-grabbers because they're cool, and cool things are cool.

 

Take this line from Fifty Shades Darker.

 

"He puts the keychain down on the bedside table and snuggles in beside me, pulling me into his arms against his chest so that we’re spooning."

 

Now, let's make this better.

 

"He puts the keychain down on the bedside table and snuggles in beside me, pulling me into his arms against his chest so that we’re spooning. Then, a pterodactyl smashed through the roof and carried me away."

 

See? Now it's worth reading!

 

So, that protagonist who has that special power to save the world? Make that power the power to become a dinosaur!

 

That evil tyrannical ruler oppressing the weak? Make an evil tyrannical t-rex!

 

That one minority you threw into the story for diversity? Make that one black dude a velociraptor!

 

Vampires? Dinosaur vampires!

 

Now, go get published!

Piss off. You wrote For The Bell Tolls. You aren't that great of a writer.

 

You piss off! It was a masterpiece! And once the publishers stop laughing for some reason, my next book will be even better!

 

 

Real talk I think I will try and add a dinosaur to my next story and see how it goes.

 

I inspire creativity in others.
