How i find the story.....

I've read millions of ways different authors pull the ideas and thoughts out and turn them into the magic we read on the pages of there books. For me the ideas are all small pieces that come to me one at a time. The family origin, the number of people in the family, the time of year it starts, the places they will go. All those things go into what the story will be and them from there I start an outline idea with all the different parts put in there  to show me the story....Then of course my fingers take off whether they are writing the words in a notebook on typing them on a keypad they speed across whatever surface needed till there are no more thoughts left.


That's how i find my stories....what about you??
