Writing A Speech Story

A writer can prepare for speeches and writing a story by getting the proper background on the speaker or the people involved in the meeting. Interviews are also important for speech stories.

The writer can also read similar articles on the topic to get hints how to write the specific story properly and successfully.

Additionally, the journalist must be well-versed on the topic of discussion or the topic of the meeting.

When writing a speech story it is necessary to include the date, time, place, circumstance(s), audience and the people involved in the speech or behind the scenes.

When including those items, be descriptive, make the reader visualize the scene and hear the audience’s questions.

Speech stories are not always the most interesting, so the writer must make the speech interesting.

The book says if you do not attract readers in the lead they will not continue to read or listen, and then the whole story will be wasted.
