Question

how to make a story

Answer 1

The best advice I can give is Show--Don't Tell. Let the person you are describing allow their actions to dictate who they are. Too many adjectives and you are telling your reader how and what to think about a certain character. That becomes boring. The reader must come to his own conclusions to find your story interesting.

"You know I love chocolate! I don't want a vanilla cone!" the four-year-old screamed, kicking his mother in her shins. "But the doctor said you are allergic to chocolate, " his mother sighed, almost whispering. Her son was missing his father--that was clear.

Here we draw conclusions that possibly the kid is a brat. But probably he is deep in pain. We want to hear more. Why did his father leave? Or did he die? How is the mother coping? She is weary and sad. Maybe she hates being saddled with this double-parenting responsibility.

If you want to tell your reader that Mark is well-mannered, you could mention how surprised and possibly embarrassed you were that he ran over to open the car door for you. Actions speak louder than adjectives.
