Develop an idea for your story. Anything can be the inspiration for a story: a dream, an attention-grabbing event or person, or sounds or smells. Write down your ideas whenever they come to you. Ultimately, your story needs to have three basic elements: characters, a plot, and a setting. Writing out a map of the story, or drawing a story board, can help you combine these elements with your ideas.
Write a draft of your story. Use vocabulary which is suitable for children. The story must be engaging and fun to read. Bear in mind that your intended audience has a certain vocabulary and comprehension level. If children can not understand your story, you must find a way to make it more accessible to them.
Pick the right online resource to publish your book. Kidpub only publishes children’s stories online. Other sites, such as Amazon, accept a wider variety of genres. The online publishing process is usually fairly simple. You upload your text into the site’s platform. Some sites allow for illustrations. Many sites will sell your story online.
Create a blog which will feature your stories exclusively. Blogger is a popular, easy to use website which allows you to publish your writings for free. Other popular blogging sites include Wordpress and Xanga, both of which do not cost anything to use.
Publicize your story with Facebook or Twitter. On Facebook, there are a few options to attract potential readers. You can create a fan page dedicated to your stories, set up a group which promotes your work, or even use your status to broadcast updates. Twitter, the famous micro-blogging service, lets you write 140 character posts. The site can also be an effective publicity tool.
