Writing a bedtime story is not magic. Every author reviews the drafts and makes the necessary adjustments for every loophole or error that they can find. The more seamless the story goes, the better you are respected and as well as the stories you write.

The title is very important too in writing your bedtime stories

Many authors spend a lot of time not only on the bedtime story that they want to tell but as well as the title. Some would think of the title first and build the story after it and some would complete the story first before deciding on what to use for the title. Whichever comfortable way you do it, make sure to give your bedtime story the much deserved title that it needs.
