What makes a good story?

A good story must have a character that the readers can relate to. 

This character will be involved in a certain plot that must be interesting and constructed beautifully and coherently, or even combined with a twist which entices the readers which avoids dull and flat storyline. 

The character's intentions or motive are also important in a story. As storytellers we are expected to be able to convey that clearly into our readers.

The storyline of a story must not be stagnant. It must have a 3-act-structure in which there are a beginning, a climax, and a resolution of the conflict in the story which our character is being faced with.

To make a good story, we should have a theme or genre.It can be horror or even a romantic drama, or just a story about a funny family living in a spaceship.

A good story is not necessarily complicated and it can be found everywhere, as long as it is creatively leading the readers into a situation in which the writer wants to convey and makes them not able-or at least reluctant- to leave it.
