My First Post

1.) The first step involved in writing a story is going over the story and making sure it makes sense. If it doesn't, you must then call the appropriate people and try to get some information from them. In addition, you should attempt to put together some data to back up your story. (This may include a lot of research from books, encyclopedias, or databases.) Try to interview people associated with the topic. This may include a wide array of people--anyone who may help your story will suffice. After you've done this, go over it with an editor or colleague and see if it makes sense to them. When this is completed, gather all your notes and thoughts in your report and place it all together. After this, fill in all the missing facts with accurate information and sources. If you do not have enough facts, it is not a legitimate story.

2.) The difficult part of doing the above is simply finding enough facts and making sure that all your information is accurate. You may also struggle to make the deadlines.

3.) Any person, affiliate, or professional associated with your topic or story. Famous quotes may also be useful in overcoming challenges to find ways to put together a story. In reality, you can use anything that is relevant or anything that adds appeal to your story. Also, you should use a voice recorder and/or notebook to make sure that all your information is accurate. Lastly, you can use a calendar to make sure that you are keeping up with the deadline and finishing tasks at the appropriate time.
