A story with a good plot and memorable characters. You don’t want a story you’ll forget about, it’s like the story just wasted your time. You want your story to make sense and not just go to one scene and then jump to another.

A good creepypasta doesn’t need any blood, its overall feeling could just be disturbing. I reccommend descriptive writing for creepypastas, the creepypasta may be longer, but it’s a whole lot creepier.

A story with some minor grammatical errors is okay, as long as they are not consistent, like in every sentence you make. Grammar is important in a story, since sometimes it’s a very big problem, like if someone says “Let’s eat, Josè!” and someone else says “Let’s eat Josè!” that comma will make the difference.

What makes a story bad? Well, a bad plot, characters that are boring and dull, too much blood, a lot of grammatical errors, and maybe a few more things.

Which type of person it is written in. Like, if a story in first person is written, that’s okay, but if it’s in first person, using the character’s name (unless someone is speaking or they are introducing theirselves) isn’t really that helpful because the reader just gets mixed up of what person they are using for their story.

An example of a bad story would be The Greely Love. We can all agree it’s pretty bad, and the fanfic is not realistic, grammar errors are everywhere, and it doesn’t really have a plot or characters you can remember.
