Strategies for generating Ideas for Personal Narratives
Think of an Important event.
Small moment:
A person you love
A person you look up to
A person that makes you nervous
Turning Point:
The first time…
The last time...
A time I realized something important...
Think about a place that matters.
Think of a strong feeling.
Live differently-notice small moments and capture them,
Read the words another author has written and allow them to spark your own story
Put yourself in that place. Put yourself in that character’s point of view and flash draft a beginning, middle, and an end.
