Heyo! I Love The Tips Of Writing! It's So Helpful And So Good! Do You Have Or Know Any Tips For Writing
Heyo! I love the tips of writing! It's so helpful😍 and so good! Do you have or know any tips for writing a prologue? Thank you very much!🥰
Heyo! So happy they help you out and I hope I can help you out even more :)
How to write a prologue
First advice: not every work of fiction has a prologue, so if you include one make sure it's memorable and enhances your story
Purpose of a prologue
to give background information the reader needs before starting the story
to explain the conflict the story starts with
to set the tone of your story
to introduce some of the characters
to foreshadow
Different kinds of prologue
Full-on action - especially if your story starts slow, you will still want to keep the reader's interest, so if you have a prologue that is full of action and drama, but then doesn't tell the reader how this scenario came to be and what happens next, then they will want to read the story to find out what's going on
The introduction - this kind of prologue establishes the point of view of the story and even introduces some of the characters and their backgrounds. This helps the reader be more connected to the characters when the story begins. But be careful not to give away too much!
Spoiler Alert - same like the first one, you want your reader to be hooked and be excited about your story, and to achieve that you can give them something that the main character doesn't even know yet or something that will be a very important fact in the future
This is just a short overview, but I hope it helps you with your writing!

Here’s a helpful little guide, do with this as you will…
I have done a lock down drill and I live in Australia. It’s actually quite common in my state????
i’ve just learned that some people have literally never undergone a school lockdown drill so for science pls reply with 1) your country of residence 2) if you know/ have ever undergone a school lockdown drill

Easy vintage wrap top
This vintage wrap top design is an easy beginners project: you don't need a pattern, you can customise it to your own size, and despite lacking stretch it doesn't require any zippers or buttons.
The top is made out of woven fabric and consists of a rectangle in which a hole for the head is cut. Straps are added to the short sides of the rectangle to tie the top around your body.
There's a lot of variations on this top: to see examples, check out these written tutorials by Sew What Gilly, Freshly Given, Gina Michele, Sadie the Sewing Machine, The Thread, and Mood Fabrics.
AssunDIY on Youtube also has tutorials for two variations on this top: a rectangle shirt version and a butterfly shirt version.
Given the simplicity of this top, it's a neat way to use up old bed sheets and such.
Some examples:

(Image source 2) [ID: a gray wrap top lying on a wooden floor. The top consists of a rectangle with a hole cut in the middle for the head. Two sets of straps, one thin and one thick, have been sewn to the sides of the rectangle.]


(Image source 1) [ID: a person modelling a royal blue wrap top with large sleeves and a slot neckline.]
(Image source 2) [ID: a royal blue wrap top lying on a tiled floor. The top consists of a rectangle with a hole and a slit for the head, and thin straps at one end of the rectangle and thick straps at the other end.]

(Image source) [ID: two photo's. Photo one shows a person wearing a wrap top made from a dark blue fabric with white flowers. The top has very wide sleeves. Text: "Free pattern + video". Photo two shows the same top lying on a white background. It has a drop-shaped neckhole, two sets of straps (one thin and one thick), and round bulging sleeves.]
