Hey !

The purpose of a hook in a story is to grab yhe audience's attention. The hook usually makes the reader more interested in knowing what ia going to happen next.

E.g. - "There I was walking the plank, but what could I do? I can fight back and take over the ship or just jump into the depths of the ocean?" My mind just wanted to explode, I didn't know what to do, so I did was just ridicules. It was...


You can grab the audience attention by making them want to really want to know what going to happen next in an intense moment. The intense parts usually make the people want to know what is going to happen next.

I hope I waa able to help you out ! :D . Also the little story I wrote here, is my own invented story, I didn't take it from any where. It came from my own mind and thoughts.

Make a story using these words.

When I was younger, Maryam, a girl who lived next door to me was rather affable. It was easy talking to her because she showed enthusiasm in everything I did. Maryam was three years older than me and had recently lost her elder sister, who died in a terrible car accident. The loss of her sister deeply affected Maryam, and her character transformed immensely. Previously being a vivacious girl, she was now lethargic, sitting at one place doing nothing. She procrastinated with everything. One day, I aspired her to try out something new instead of sitting around and doing nothing. This pushed a trigger in her memories, and she recalled her halcyon days of childhood. She laughed at the memory of her elder sister, whom everyone had loved because she was down-to-earth and not haughty.
