Anecdotes

Read Isaiah 7-9

Isaiah 8:1 "Moreover the Lord said unto me, Take thee a great roll, and write in it with a man's pen concerning Mahershalalhashbaz."

Anecdotes make articles more interesting. These little stories give readers a glimpse into the life of the subject we’re writing about.

When we’re writing about a concept, not a person, we might find it harder to find good anecdotes to share. We can make something up, as long as we make it clear it’s fiction.

Fiction can also benefit from anecdotes. A character can share part of her backstory through an anecdote—or have her backstory shared by another character.
