If you are an aspiring writer, you have probably wondered what it is that makes the bestsellers so good. There are a lot of things that many successful stories share. One thing is that they have some interesting characters. These characters are actually memorable and are living breathing characters as opposed to caricatures
Another thing to go for is the relationships. Characters have to have some interesting relationships and they must go through events that change them as they go along. They can't stay the same.
One thing that will keep the audience's attention is unpredictability. If you can get the audience to wonder what is going to happen next and fail to guess at it, this will make your story that much better. Originality does not hurt either.
