If you are writing a novel, novella, or any other type of story there aren't set rules. You don't have to make sense and you don't have to start with the beginning.When most authors are composing their books, they usually start with the end. You know, you always half to know how the story ends before you figure out how the rest falls into place.
A good way to plan out your own story is a parts of plot diagram. The beginning spikes up into the rising action. Which means, all the events leading up the to main event in the story. The peak of the diagram is the climax, the middle. When the diagram stoops downhill it is called falling action. Otherwise known as all the things that happen after the climax, including how the conflict (if there is one) is solved. Personally, I think that these diagrams are the best way to plot out your story line. You can substitute in what happens in the middle for the word climax. Also with the rest, rising and falling action, beginning and end. When and if you plug in all the events on a diagram like this one, you see kind of how your story line is going to be laid out. Right in front of you. I, personally, think that this method is the best way to plan out your story line beforehand.
