A quest is a journey towards a goal. These goals can vary – from objects to ideas. What examples can you think of Quest stories usually have a central hero (with skills and flaws like the rest of us). And the heroes face obstacles to overcome along the way, learning and changing as they go.
Knowing these basic elements of a quest, write your own quest short story. Plan out the course of events: Introduce a goal that must be reached/solved/fixed/etc. Think about your hero and why he or she feels the need to venture out in pursuit of this goal. Trip-up your hero a few times along the way, but don’t forget about the consequences or results of those challenges!
