How to come up with story ideas.

In able to come up with a good story idea, people have to see, listen, and research stories. Then, you must come up with questions about that story which could lead to an idea. Listen to other people talk and get in the conversation. Out of the many topics that you will be discussing, one if not more, ideas will be developing before you know it. Always ask what if questions. For example, What if school uniforms were required from now on? Also, seeing a TV show or movie can give a person a lot of ideas. I think that it is best to start with movies that are based on a true story. When I want to write something, I get my ideas from personal experiences. It is not hard to do. There are questions that should be asked before writing. What, where, when, why, who, and how. Here is an example. First of all, I will ask each question followed by an explanation. Then, I will make a story based on the info that I provided. What is happening? Someone is typing on the computer. Where is it happening? He is In front of a computer and in a room. When is this taking place? This is taking place Today at 1 21 P.m. Why is he typing? He is writing this to post this on a blog. Who is typing? Daniel is Typing. He is typing by using two hands.
So, let me give you the little story. Someone, by the name of Daniel, is inside his room typing on his computer. This began today at 1 21 P.m. He is typing by using two hands. As soon as he is done, He will post his writing on a blog.
In between this info, you must add details.
I hope this helps people who are struggling to come up with an idea of what to write about. Remember, these questions can be used for anything you want to do.
