Slide 4- creative non fiction is also known as literary non fiction or narrative non fiction and it could be
literary journalism. It also uses literary styles and techniques to create factually accurate narratives.

Slide 5- Lee Gutkind is an American writer ,speaker and founder of the literary journal called creative

Slide 7- settings is the location and time frame in which the action of narrative takes place.

Slide 8- Plot is one of the basic elements of every story: put simply, plot refers to the actual events that
take place within the bounds of your narrative. Using our rhetorical situation vocabulary, we can identify
“plot” as the primary subject of a descriptive personal narrative.

Slide 9- ELEMENTS OF SCOPE

Scope- there are question that arises in scope just like

“Where and when the story ends”

“what is its focus”

“what background information and details does the story require”

SEQUENCE- sequence of your plot is the order of the events and it will determine the readers
experience

Slide 10 we should Keep in mind that while human characters are most frequently featured in stories,
sometimes there are non-human characters in a story such as animals or even the environment itself.

by Francisco Cantú.

Slide 11 What kind of clothes do they wear? What do they look, smell, sound like?—or,

Indirectly, through the behaviors, speech, and thoughts of the character—What kind of language,
dialect, or register do they use? What is the tone, inflection, and timbre of their voice? How does their
manner of speaking reflect their attitude toward the listener? How do their actions reflect their traits?
What’s on their mind that they won’t share with the world?

Slide 12 Round characters- Your most important characters should be round: the added detail will help
your reader better visualize, understand, and care about them.

Flat characters Less important characters should take up less space and will therefore have less
detailed characterization.

Static characters Even though all of us are always changing, some people will behave and
appear the same throughout the course of your story. Static characters can serve as a reference point
for dynamic characters to show the latter’s growth.

Dynamic characters Most likely, you will be a dynamic character in your personal narrative
because such stories are centered around an impactful experience, relationship, or place. Dynamic
characters learn and grow over time, either gradually or with an epiphany.

Slide 13 Point of View

The position from which your story is told will help shape your reader’s experience, the language your
narrator and characters use, and even the plot itself. You might recognize this from Dear White People
Volume 1 or Arrested Development Season 4, both Netflix TV series. Typically, each episode in these
seasons explores similar plot events, but from a different character’s perspective. Because of their
unique vantage points, characters can tell different stories about the same realities.

Tone-What emotional state does the narrator of the story (not the author, but the speaker) seem to be
in? What emotions are you trying to imbue in your writing?

Mood-What emotions do you want your reader to experience? Are they the same feelings you
experienced at the time?
