Structure of Story

Structure of story- some authors have clairvoyant clarity about the structure of their novel even before they proceed to write it.

Booker Prizewinner Arundhati Roy said in an interview once about her novel The God of Small Things-- the structure of the book was clear to me like the "bleached bones of the story"

Not every writer however can expect to begin with a blueprint of his creative edifice.

But structure emerges.

Best thing is to free write for sometime and let the leashed Muse pull you like a Doberman in the direction it prefers.

Writing is not always about words in cement, it can be more pleasurably imagined as play in the sand.

The aggregate (pun definitely intended) is to have fun while coming with something concrete.
