Entry 31, Author's Background

  I think when it comes to different stories, the author can depend on the story, and determine if requiring the first hand experience would be necessary for the article. When the article is taking an approach in which the purpose of it is to inform, like a documentary, or other news articles, I think other than those times, the author should have first handed experiences, I think that people without the experience would provide a better and more interesting story. I think when it comes to normal stories, it is best that the  author does not have any direct  connection or knowledge and experience on it, and it will kill the whole imagination of the author due to the fact that they already know the outcome of the actions. If the author did not know the outcome as well, they will have more imagination, they will take other approaches towards the story and therefore creating a much interesting story that will satisfy the reader more. People tend to dramatize stories to make the story better and more interesting and to draw the audience into the article or film. Without the interesting dramas, then the story would just be boring. I think it is better for people to use their imaginations on creating characters than to directly tell us what these characters have in traits because of some reason of cause. I would be much more appealed to the story that is more dramatically produced than a one that is straight facts.
