The First Key Decision to Make When Starting a New Story

I posted this on Twitter:

Got a question about how to plot a story for novel/tv/film/play? Ask and I will answer via Twitter or blog post. 🙂 #amwriting

I’m excited about this. I got my first question this morning:

@VikRubenfeld Want 2 write 3 short stories with the same theme either for tv or perhaps straight to dvd/download. How should I approach it?

I replied:

@thomastheauthor First select which style/styles of story are suitable for your theme. See http://t.co/1JlhrDKebg and please let me know!

This is always one of the first key decisions to make when you are breaking a story, whether for film, novel, TV, play, short story, YouTube video, etc.
