Creative Writing: What I Did This Summer

NOW list the events in the SEQUENCE in which they are PRESENTED IN THE STORY (the orchestration of PLOT).

I was in high school the first time I had to write a narrative. I was a freshman. This was Ms. Bradley’s first time teaching at Union Christian Academy. On her first day, she gave us our syllabus and said, “I do not accept late work, especially on writing assignments.” We, literally, sat there stunned. My freshman class had it very easy during eighth grade year. We were not expecting this. As I looked through the syllabus, I saw that our first assignment was due in a week and it was a narrative. At this time, I did not even know what a narrative was. Ms. Bradley explained that a narrative was an account or story of events. It could be either true or false. Our narrative had to be true. It had to be a true account of something that happened to us over the summer. She wanted to gauge how are writing skills were. Our narrative had to be at least two to two and a half pages long. I chose to write my first ever narrative on my trip to Fort Worth, Texas. Once again, I was plagued with writer’s block. I had the story in my head, but everything I

Throughout the movie the events occurred in the order of: 4a, 2, 6, 1, 7, 3, 4b, 5. "Prologue—The Diner"

In chapter six of “Critical Handbook of Children’s Literature” which was written by Rebecca Lukens. Jacqueline Smith, and Cynthia Coffel, plot are known as “Sequence of events showing characters in conflict”. Also, this order is one of the best ways for writers to help readers to understand the story of the each character, which was selected by the writer (p. 141). Narrative order is one of the form that is included in the plot, it is the form that tells the story through following an events by step by step. In addition, there are different type of narrative order, one of them is Chronological Order, then Variations in Narrative Form, and finally the Variations is Representations of Time (Lukens et al, 2012, p. 142). This three types of order have their own form that can help children to read and understand the children’s literature.

The order of the story is from start to end as a two year time period. There are some flashbacks in this that show how they got to their new home and how they got Zan. The rest of the story is in order from start to end. This is shown thru the growth and development of Zan and the Tomlin household. Textual evidence of this is that in some points of the book, it gives dates, times, sometimes season and eclipses in years.

When a story is written in an organized structure with divided paragraphs, the reader can assume a time frame and get an idea of what is going on.

It is connected to the idea of the first paragraph the other slowly without any sudden jump using the idea with the other for example the first paragraphs say “FLINT, Mich.” the transition is connecting with words similar “The brief trip to Flint” is reaping the sentences quick phases that developments new ideas. The paragraphs seem the relationship logical that the readers can understand the story. Well the written could be more better to writing in Hourglass structure because is more easy the

The principles of Narratology can be divided into two big categories. First, there is the distinction between the tale and the telling. The tale is the guideline of the text; it shows the sequence of events in the order they take place. As such, the tale is rarely objectively observable in a text since the events are not often found in a linear order. This brings the telling. The telling shows the tale as it is presented. This includes analepsis and prolepsis, memories, but also different points of view. A series of events might be repeated multiple times if it is seen through a

Successful narrative have three features. Firstly, temporality, a chronological sequence of events. This is the aspect that represents a flow of events. Linguistics consider that narratives make evolutionary sense if they’re observed as the notion by which human kind

The stream of occurrences was abridged in a complaint yet celebratory letter, that left no space for detailing the inside information and all the facts and circumstances surrounding it. The other story is however shown from multiple perspectives and by re-enacting the unified effect the logical order is altered. The narrative structure is entangled not only because of the imagery offered within the same story, which is more likely to change the position taken by the reader, but also, considering that the notion of time gives a sense of a lost thread running through the story. Therefore merely resembling a rupture in the preservation of a not much elaborate plot. This technique supports the view of character building being drawn by the reader with back stories to supplement the gaps created by the alteration of the order. Particularly, the structure of the story is subject to changes and new development, allowing the reader to unrestrictedly choose alternatives to support and provide with a suitable

Differentiating between a “framed” story and a “straight line” story can be identified by deciphering the location of the climax and where the story ends. For instance, the “framed” story delivers patterns that move from one to another, building encounters, and deviations that lead to the climax which then end there. A

The structure of the story isn’t chronological, but is rather made up of different time settings throughout a day. Initially it begins with a flashforward, compared to the next part of the story, which is a flashback. After that the story become somewhat chronological, with a short flashback towards the end.

Chronological order can suit different rhetorical modes or patterns of exposition. It naturally fits in narration, because when we tell a story, we usually follow the order in which events occur. Chronological order applies to
