Someone asked why do we write stories. In my opinion we write stories for entertainment for other people to experience someones life from a different view or perspective. Stories may often be something of historical back round to teach you your history so the next generation can know to. Same thing with legends. Some may be fiction or non fiction. you may make up things in your head that is so great you just have to tell somebody else. It could turn into a world wide story and everyone could love it. Someone than asked what makes a story. What makes a story is your imagination. there is many different ideas and history that can be turned into stories.
