how can i carry it on

[Fishermaaan]

i need to do a like 5 page story
so far done 1 and a half and baffled lol
well its about a boy
he has a dream, and sees some sort of man
he wakes up, and sees the carnage left after last nights event
glass was breaking, rocks being thrown etc
He walks around
and sees a piece of a shirt
it seems familiar to him
he looks around and sees a man
in a car, lookin at him, then it drives off
this man is going to be the man he sees in his dream, and its going to end with it being his dad
but the thing im confused on is how to carry it on
Ive gotten to the part where he sees the man in the car, but i have to write like 3 and a half more pages and i dont know wot to write lol

Don't decide then ending yet if you can't think how to get there.

[Lozzoling]

do it so you dont know the whole story till the end

so theres no character description

make him have memory loss or something

so by finding a torn newspaper you get some info

etc etc

ive got the ending figured, but dont know what should be in the middle Should he see this man again, and follow him, or should I do sumtin else lol iuno

Lozz dat seems like a good idea.

urm, firstly you need to have a 'dive in action' sequence. so you dont bore the reader stupid after the first chapter. twists and a page turning climax is always good, try keeping more of a secret from the reader, with heart racing emotions. then an ending thats sure to either give a message, show a few tears or give a nice heartwarming ending. depends what atmosphere & emotions you want to use.

yeah im gna build up the story to william trying to find out who this man is, and as he does, he remembers things he sees from his past, and it relates to his dream, and the end ill say that it was his father, which would leave the reader in shock.
