There are tons of ways stories could add appeal and it does depend on the person of course. For me however…
I LOVE cliffhangers! Ending with a plot twist or having some sort of major event happen at the end makes me want to read another episode and find out what happened. Stories that I find appealing also are stories that are unique and have a very unique story line and are not based off of another story. Having different characteristics and different elements that are going on in the story make it interesting to see how they come together in the end. Possibly betrayal and mystery within any story is fantastic. Adding any sort of calm drama, or Irony is great within the dialogue. Dramatic Irony is also a great way to spice up any story, add mischief. Subtle comedic moments and all sorts of emotions to make it interesting.
I might like stories too much but, this is what I enjoy. May some agree and some may not. Thank you for letting me share my thoughts @cynthia.episode. Very Much appreciated.
