I’m writing a short story for my ninth grade english class and it was going pretty well.. but now I’m having some writers block. I was wondering if anyone can give me ideas on how to adjust the story and add more detail to it.

The story is about a 21 year old mime who promised his cousin who was 16 at the time to continue making people laugh by becoming a mime himself. The story idea may not sound good but trust me the story is really interesting. Well anyway, his cousin died and the mime, who’s name is Brendan Radke, believes he died because the clowns had kicked them out of the fair. Now 12 years later Brendan went back to the fair to show the clowns they can’t pick on him and he could stay and make people laugh with his humor for his cousin. When he gets there he sees people being entertained by the clown and he needs to steal the spotlight.. any ideas on how to???????

i was thinking maybe Brendan storms up to the clown and then surprisingly the clown turns the spotlight over to him and Brendan realizes he can forgive the clowns after all these years because they didn’t kill his cousin after all…. but i feel like that’s too plain..

any help?
