details or something to catch the readers attention

What makes a story a good begging is the author telling u where its taking place and whats happening, and not just jumping into the story.

A story has a good beginning when the author describes the setting well, but still doesn't take too long until jumping into the action. It is also good when the author shares a little bit of the main character at a time, enough for the reader to understand who's story they're reading about. My favorite way of starting stories would be to start with a piece of dialogue and continuing from there, to have the reader immediately immerse themselves in the story.

I like when it starts in motion and then goes and tells how it leads up to that point. I also like when it starts with the writing sounding like it is coming from a narrator (no names and really detailed explanations. )

I think a good story should with a flashback or something that will establish how the main character acts.

a good story is begun when the author catches the reader with a hook that would be in the form of a question that is one that correlates with the rest of the story and or a hyperbole that gets the imagination blasting out different ideas that trigger some sort of emotional state in the reader

What makes a good beginning to a story is a story that contains a lot of dialogue. Dialogue is very important because it opens up the story to the reader.

It depends. For me, good beginnings always have to have hooks so you can keep finding out what happened to the character. But this only applies to few types of settings. Take a biography for example; the first sentence doesn't exactly need to be a hook.

A good beginning of a story usually starts with a good way of introducing characters while already beginning to advance the plot. Of course there are a few "once upon a time" type books that are pretty good, but I personally prefer books that already have began pushing through the exposition so I am not bored of how slow things are moving. As the plot advances having a good story with suspense and ways to leave the reader on their toes while continuing to write with figurative language that grasps onto the reader (this varies from author to author) helps keep me captivated throughout the entire book. Good characters that have their flaws but are still lovable are also very important to storytelling. Smaller stories in the background are also nice, but not all that necessary to have a good piece of writing.

Interesting characters, and eventually, death of beloved characters. ( ex. Poisonwood Bible)
Hey Ms. Crowell, have you ever read the Poisonwood Bible?

In my opinion, a good setting and the overall dialogue of the characters really make a good story.

To me a good beginning is when the first sentence or sentences have an unexpected meaning behind them that you can only figure out when you keep reading. I also like when dramatic quotes or outburst catch your attention really quickly, because then I'm more likely to get interesting quickly.

I think a good beginning would start with a small problem that is connected to the main conflict.

The beginning to a good story is to start it off with the cliffhanger end, make it like a poem that goes in a circle. Now this start will awry interest your reader and enrapture them.

I Personally like it when a story starts in the middle of the action.

I normally don't like reading books, but its funny. When I first start a book and really like it, I'll get really into it, and ill read like crazy.
In, "The Maze Runner" by James Dashner, he makes the beginning by showing a character, and showing a setting. He describes the setting down to every spec, he doesn't leave out any detail, yet at the same time it's mysterious. The beginning brings in the reader when they want to know more.

An unusal and intresting beggining to snag my attention. It doesnt have to nessisarily be unusual but written in an attractive way that you want to read more of, which sometimes is just

onomatopoeia, introducing a situation, setting the scene, introducing a character, vivid imagery, dialogue,

Personally, I like it when they start with the setting, painting it in bright , visual colors.I enjoy reading descriptions. I keep reading when the story is interesting, descriptive or philosophical.

For a good beginning of a story for me is when stories start talking about the characters and a bit of there backstories

One thing that makes a good start to a story is a hook, or something that makes me wonder what will happen to a certain character. Also, a mysterious tone can hook me.

A good beginning starts with an introduction. What makes me want to keep reading is when the plot is good or the story keeps getting better.
