Welcome to our writing program! Today, we are going to explore a unique storytelling technique that is quite popular in Asian writing, particularly in mangas, light novels, and other forms of Asian media. It's called kishotenketsu, and I'll explain it using a traffic light analogy.1557Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5INYiewIXE

Think of the Green light as the beginning, where you introduce the characters who will play a role in the story. Then, the Yellow light represents a slowdown in the narrative, allowing for character development. Explore what makes each character who they are, why they made certain choices, and what challenges they may face in the near future—the calm before the storm.1557Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNUGPRm21ue

Finally, the Red light signifies the climax of the story. The problem has arrived, and it's up to the characters to confront and deal with it. What will the outcome be? It's an exciting moment of tension and resolution.1557Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsitjH9Qty9

To practice and improve your skills, I encourage you to write a short story using this kishotenketsu writing style. Remember, practice makes perfect, and you can also learn a lot from reading the works of others. Never forget the value of continuous learning!
