Writing is quite a difficult task. It certainly takes time to do it well. Do not write just the first thing it crosses your mind. The best thing is to plan your writing. First, write a draft and make sure you include an introduction, a body and a conclusion.
Introduction: set the scene properly (who-where-when-what), mention or describe the people involved, choose a place, a time and the action taking place.
Body: Describe the incidents which lead up to the main event and the main event in detail.
Conclusion: End the story. Refer to the moods, consequences, people´s reactions, feelings, comments..
Something you must never do. Don´t think in Spanish when you are writing in English or you will get something like this:
_The people was very worry with the terrible success. The next day was spoken for every
Mieres.
Here is a short composition of a student who did not follow the steps decribed above when asked to write about an event. Read it, say why it is wrong and rewrite it.
_It was a dark night. It was raining heavily when the murder was killing the girl. I saw the face of the murder, but he didn´t see me.
Next day I went to the police, I told an agent what happened. The police was sending the murder for long time but he is very intelligent. Next week the police trapped the murder in his house. Now the people of the town is very happy.
