I'm thinking about it...

What makes a good story? In the past year, Cathy has had way too much time in her hands to ponder this question. She has read many more novels than she expected, of varying authors and genres and she has asked around, hoping to find the answer.

But why is the answer so important, you may wonder. Who cares what makes a good story? Cathy wants to be sure her story is the best one. And she doesn't mean her journal, which you now have in your hands, she means her life story. She wants to make it a good one.
