Lesson: WRITE A SHORT STORY (FICTION/NONFICTION) WITH ITS

COMPLETE ELEMENTS

Being a good storyteller means that you should be familiar with the ingredients
needed to make up a story. These ingredients are the key elements that should be present
in a story that you would like to write.
Stories can be written as a product of the writer’s imagination, or he or she can write
from real-life experiences or situations.
Writing stories can come from your imagination – meaning, your mind, and your
creativity and fantasy allow you to write a story with imaginary characters and settings.
These characters can have magical powers, or the settings can be in a fantastical world. In
short, these stories are called fiction, reports made up by the writer that is not necessarily
true.
Fictional stories may include science-fiction stories like characters with superhero
abilities, like Captain America or Darna, or magical abilities like the fairy godmother of
Cinderella or Enteng Kabisote.
On the other hand, nonfictional stories can also write stories based on real-life
scenarios or real events. These nonfiction stories try to inform us of real things, events,
characters, and settings, or they try to explain real-life events. The news stories you read in
newspapers or the diary you or friends keep are examples of nonfiction.
Nonfictional stories may include news stories in newspapers, history, personal
diaries, or even a recipe book. These stories report truth or facts.
