Monster story

Story: Typically, monster stories are told from the perspective of the humans confronting the monster. Ask yourself what the monsters thin about their treatment, and write a brief autobiography of a monster. Choose one you know from literature or film, or invent a new monster. Outline the sequence of events in the monster’s whole life or focus on events in one episode. Remember to write using the pronoun “I”, show how a well-developed conflict is resolved, and gain readers’ sympathy for your monster.

Prewriting: Outline the plot of your narrative. Remember to think about the incidents from the monster’s point of view.

Write your narrative in a serious or humorous way. Use concrete sensory details to add impact. If appropriate, pace the presentation of action to build suspense or sympathy.

Make sure you maintain the monster’s point of view and voice. Add figurative language to make your descriptions more vivid.
