What to Focus On

  • A narrative tells a story in sequence.
  • It may be real or imaginary.
  • Clarity and order are essential.

  • Introduction or Hook introduces the situation.
  • Conflict presents the problem.
  • Rising Action increases suspense.

  • The opening line must attract attention.
  • Useful words and descriptions should be listed before drafting.
  • A strong beginning creates curiosity.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

A narrative can begin directly with the main incident, and the opening line does not matter much.

The introduction should be the fastest part of a narrative because it needs to reach the action quickly.

The climax is the same thing as the rising action, so both should be written in the same style.
