In 1996 I wanted and needed a tall tale story. My vivid imagination went to work and that’s how I came up with the idea to grow a big watermelon. This story has been a big hit wherever I tell it. But one of the best benefits I have received from this story is how to outline a story before I begin writing. In the unique process that I use I can start at any point in the story and work forward or backward in my outlining process. I have taught this process in workshops and it has been beneficial to many people in writing a story.
