How to start the first episode of my story?

[NeahM]

Heyy guys, I already have everything… Introduction, plot, splashes, characters, description but I don’t know how to start the first story can you help me? I really need help to start the first one then maybe i’ll be able to do the rest or might need help again who knows. But rn I would take help or even co writers for the first episode thank you if you’re willing to help

In my story the characters are introduced in their homes and a narrator describes them and the
narrator even makes jokes with them I think it’s a fun way to introduced characters if not you can have the first character describe them and then they talk to other characters and then it leaves an opening for introduction. Pm me for more questions.

I like to start my stories with action (such as an important flashback). I don’t want to bore readers with long narrations and I think jumping right into the story is a good way to go.

This method gets the reader excited right away and can help readers learn about your characters by showing their personalities through actions/dialogue, not telling the reader who they are by narrations

Feel free to PM me if you have any other questions!

Hi !! If your story has CC you should start by letting your readers do CC. If not then you can start off by having a “hook” that’ll grab the readers attention like start off by doing some that’ll be interesting or you can introduce the main character and do a brief background !! let me know if you have any questions or you can PM me

Thank you, I already did CC but don’t know how to start the story I will pm you!!

I’m not sure if it would work for your story but for mine I started with a comedic intro (but that’s only because it’s a comedy story) honestly you can do anything the reader will most likely love it as long as it’s not boring or has any mistakes (although the only intro I would stay away from are those long narrations) if you have any questions feel free to pm me! (:

Thank mine is a mafia story

[therealslimshady]

If it’s a mafia story you could always lead into it with mystery so the reader wants to find out more for example there could be a shipment or something but there was an attack and we don’t know who attacked just to lead with a bit of mystery but that’s just an example you could tailor ideas to fit your story description better

Maybe, thank you so much
