Question: In your opinion, how do writers make “words come alive”? Based on what you have heard during the panel discussion, how would you make “words come alive” for you and your friends?
In my own opinion, writers make “words come alive” by writing something that is true, that means he gets inspiration from something he sees or rather current affairs then he makes a story out of the thing/topic he has chosen. Thus, he makes the story seem real as all the descriptions in the story are actually real but then it is just that the story has been fabricated but planned so detailed such that the readers keep thinking in their mind that it is real. I personally feel that this way of writing is very, very tough, take for example that you are writing science fiction, it makes it very tough to write stories through this method as this talks about the present circumstances while science fiction concentrates on the future. This method is indeed effective to allow readers to be engrossed in your story and start to think if the story has been fabricated or not. Thus, when writing, try to find a common topic between your friends and yourself, and then try to make up a story in which the theme is the topic chosen and involve your friends in it. Through this particular method, we are able to make “words come alive”.
