In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: Think about who your hero is and what they want. Identify their reason for being, what they value most, and what is missing from their life. Understanding and developing your hero's motivations will be the driving force for your entire story, so it's important to make this as detailed as possible. For example, perhaps your hero has to find a special resource that will allow them to repair a machine that cleans all of the water for their village. Or, perhaps someone the hero loves has been kidnapped and they need to seek out and fight the villain who took this person from them. A good hero is not only someone with extraordinary abilities, it is also someone people look up to and would love to have as a friend. Think about what makes your hero likable and how you can incorporate these traits into your story. For example, your hero might be the son of a blacksmith who is skilled at sword fighting, but incredibly humble about their abilities and unwilling to enter competitions. Or, your hero might be a beautiful young princess who prefers blue jeans to ball gowns and who isn't above working alongside her own staff when there's a crisis. A perfect hero will be less likable and also harder for readers to relate to. It's important to give your hero some flaws as well. Your hero needs to seem human even if they're an immortal, such as a god or goddess. Think about what your hero's weaknesses might be and how you could weave those into your story. For example, your hero might be clumsy, gullible, hot-tempered, or impatient. Demonstrating your hero's growth is an important part of writing a story about a hero. Think about what changes your hero needs to make to overcome their biggest obstacle or to obtain the object of their quest. Knowing this ahead of time will help you to plan your story out and provide your hero with opportunities to develop the skills they need to be successful. For example, perhaps your hero needs to gain self-confidence and overcome a fear of public speaking. To give them practice, they might have a couple of opportunities where they will have to get the attention of a small crowd or a room full of people. This could be leading up to a scene where they have to speak in front of thousands of people to achieve their objective.
Summary: Identify your hero's goal or purpose. Develop traits that will make your hero likable. Give your hero flaws to make them more realistic. Identify how your hero will grow from their experiences.

In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: Most leather leggings are actually made with faux leather instead of the real deal. Faux leather is generally made from stretchy fabric, like spandex, coated with some form of black polyurethane. Faux leather is typically easier to care for. You can usually wash faux leather in your washing machine without damaging the material. Real leather leggings are far more expensive than faux leather. Good quality leather is very durable, however, which means the piece will likely last longer. Leather is also a more breathable material than polyurethane-coated spandex, which is used for faux leather leggings. You'll need to find a cleaner who specializes in leather, which can be a pricey service. Since real leather is often less stretchy than faux leather, real leather leggings typically feature zips at either the waist or the leg to make them easier to put on. When in doubt, go with a size larger rather than a size that feels a little snug. Leather and faux leather are both pretty unforgiving fabrics with regards to body shape. If the material stretches taut over your legs and waist, expect to see every fold highlighted in an unappealing manner. There's also no way to fix stretching once it's happened, with both real and faux leather. Faux leather may take slightly longer to stretch, however. Black leather leggings and dark brown leather leggings are the easiest to find, and with good reason. These two options are the most versatile and easiest to style well. You can find faux leather leggings in white, red, and a range of other colors. Brightly colored pieces are far more difficult to style. Try a shade like navy or dark maroon rather than pastel pinks or blues, for instance. Since leather leggings fit snugly, they are prone to riding down and often require perpetual readjustments as you wear them. High waistbands help to minimize this problem and typically make wearing leather leggings more comfortable.
Summary: Go with faux leather for an affordable option that's easier to care for. Opt for real leather leggings for a more breathable, durable choice. Consider buying a size up to limit stretching. Stick with more natural colors like black and dark brown. Try out a higher waistband for a more comfortable fit.

In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: Once you are comfortable with the basic mechanics of the kite, it is time to get in the water. You'll do this without a board at first, and in wind conditions that are below 20 knots. Be sure that you are in a relatively clear area of the water. You don't want anyone within 100 yards. Practice the same flying exercises that you did while on land. You will want to make sure that the area downwind of you is clear. That is probably where you will end up! Whilst the kite is in the air, practice dragging yourself back and forth using the wind through the water. You'll be "kite surfing" without a surf board. Do this until you are comfortable controlling your kite.This is essential to safety so make sure you are practiced with it before progressing further. You'll need to know how to do this if you ever have to retrieve a lost board. Whilst your kite is in the air, sit back in the water supported by your harness. Then put your feet onto the board and float to get used to the feeling. When ready, pull yourself up into a standing position. Keep your center of gravity low to maintain your balance before attempting to steer or surf. Don't stand up too fast or aggressively - you might tip over the other way! During the offseason you can practice your "board skills" on a skateboard. Turning the kite will be harder now that you are on your board. Push the steering bar forward to bring the kite over your head. This will slow you down, allowing you to more easily move the kite to the other side of the wind window and start in the opposite direction. Rome wasn't built in a day, and kite surfing is a hobby that takes a long time to master. The more time you are on a board with a kite in the air, the more your skills will improve. Start slow at first and always stay safe.
Summary:
Get yourself wet. Practice body dragging. Get on your board. Practice changing direction. Practice practice practice.
