So You Want To/Make Urban Legends True

Say your story is about an Urban Legend come true... You came to the right place for help. Make your Urban Legend come true by:

1. Sticking with the story - as the creator you must create limits and restrictions. Even a Fictional World has limits; you need to avoid a Fantasy Kitchen Sink so not to confuse audiences. Mixing fantasy and science is good, but don't go overboard. Stay within the limits you set for your story.

2. Decide what the legend is. Perhaps it's a rumored website that kills those who use it, or something about going out at midnight and dissapearing. What the legend is depends on setting, plot and story. If you want a believeable legend, be realistic but also incorperate the fantasy and mystery elements of most Urban Legends.

3. Person, monster, god, demons? - Is the legend about an ordinary human, a monster or an object?

4. Whats This Button Do? - What's the legend have to do with the story? Do the characters meet/confront it, decide to help, defeat it? What impact does the legend have on the characters' life/lives? Does it effect society? Does it Change The World?

5. All Myths Are True - If a story has multiple urban legends are all of them true?
