Being Narrative

When you begin to write a paper we all usually struggle and don't really know where to start. In the chapters about drafting and informing the audience which you desire to inform, or tell your narrative story, they tell you techniques in which you can use to map out and schedule a good time to stay focused and on track. First off, you should never procrastinate and wait to the last minute to do your paper, things could happen and then technically your lost. You should find a place that's comfortable to you and somewhat inspiring for you and your writing. You want a place that doesn't distract you or keep you off track. When starting to write, use techniques like free writing and breaking things down into smaller segments, and you have to remember that your first draft is just ideas and the beginning, nothing has to be perfect or set in stone. Try to any type of writers block by asking yourself questions, take a break, use the techniques for beginning writing or do research. Especially in a Narrative story, detail and description are very important. You want the reader to feel and hear what your explaining, as if your actually showing them. Another important aspect is dialogue, a "colorful and interesting," aspect to your story. When using dialogue, you intrigue the readers by letting someone else into the story and let them share their opinion and point of view your trying to get across. In the end, when writing a narrative story it needs to have a full beginning to end with a point and moral to your story. It needs to have order, transitions, incredible detail, and a good situation. That all combined will give a terrific narrative story that everyone will want to read.
