Re: What makes a story a good story?
A good story should have: character, setting, conflict, plot and theme.
Beyond that, you are free to find your voice. Maybe you don't write sexually explicit material or maybe you do, maybe a short story or a longer multi-chapter story. The great thing about writing is that you get to decide. What I like to do is do an outline; who are the characters, what is the theme, where does it take place, etc. Make an. Outline and start writing, fill in the blanks, and ask for feedback.
If you need proof reading, I'm available. Good luck!
