TECHNIQUES IN WRITING A NONFICTION STORY 5

A

Tell a memorable story
Bait your audience
Use emotional language
Say it simply
Surprise the reader

59
Q

Humans have been fascinated by stories since the dawn of time. We remember stories much better than abstract rules, formulas or concepts. A post or essay will be stronger and more relatable if you include little examples, experiences and comparisons.

A

Tell a memorable story

60
Q

One strategy is beginning with a little personal or historical story. Before the reader knows it, he will be halfway through your article.

A

Bait your audience

61
Q

The less abstract your nouns, the better. Any noun of something you’re able to touch physically is better than something you can’t touch. Palpable words draw the reader into your text more effectively, so he experiences them instead of simply reading them.

A

Use emotional language

62
Q

If you have great content, don’t encrypt it. Provide even more value for your reader by cutting the content down into easily digestible bites.
Say it as simply as possible, but make sure your idea comes across.

A

Say it simply

63
Q

Include an unexpected twist or turn when you can. It will keep things interesting and fun for your audience.
Keep readers on their toes by asking them a question and answering it in a way they wouldn’t have expected.

A

Surprise the reader

64
Q

Elements of Creative Nonfiction

A

Setting
Descriptive Imagery
Figurative Language
Plot
Characters

65
Q

is the time and place where the story takes place. Usually, an effective story establishes its setting early in the story: otherwise readers will have a difficult time visualizing the action of the story.

A

setting

66
Q

It is the way the writer paints the scene, or image, in the mind of the reader. It usually involves descriptions of one or
more of the (five senses): sight, sound, smell, touch, or taste.

A

Descriptive Imagery

67
Q

is using language in a surprising way to describe a literary moment.

A

Figurative language

68
Q

This refers to the actual events that take place within the bounds of your narrative. Using our rhetorical situation vocabulary, we can identify “_______” as the primary subject of a descriptive personal narrative.

Exposition

Resolution

73
Q

Here, you’re setting the scene, introducing characters, and preparing the reader for the
journey.

A

Exposition

74
Q

In this part, things start to happen. You (or your characters) encounter conflict, set out on
a journey, meet people, etc.

A

Rising action:

75
Q

This is the peak of the action, the main showdown, the central event toward which your story has been building.

A

Climax:

76
Q

Now things start to wind down. You (or your characters) come away from the climactic
experience changed—at the very least, you
are wiser for having had that experience.

A

Falling action:

77
Q

Also known as dénouement, this is where all the loose ends get tied up. The central conflict has been resolved, and everything is back to normal, but perhaps a bit different.

A

Resolution:

78
Q

literally means “in the middle of things”; a story that
begins in medias res begins in the middle of the action. This leads to this sequence:

A

80
Q

may be told in a series of flashbacks or
vignettes, therefore, making the story jump back and forth in time. Stories about trauma are often told in this fashion. In using this plot form, be sure to make clear to readers how/why the jumps in time are occurring. A writer might clarify jumps in time by adding time-stamps or dates or by using symbolic images to connect different vignettes.

A

Nonlinear narrative

81
Q

This is one of the major requirements in making a story because they bring life to the story.

A

Characters

82
Q

– the development of characters through actions, descriptions, and dialogue. Your audience will be more engaged with and sympathetic toward your narrative if they can vividly imagine the characters as real people.

A

Characterization

83
Q

Characterization may be done in two ways:

A

Direct
Indirect

84
Q

through specific description of the character— What kind of clothes do they wear? What do they look, smell, sound like?—or,

A

Directly,

85
Q

through the behaviors, speech, and thoughts of the character—

A

Indirectly,

86
Q

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. It impacts tone, mood, scope, voice, and plot.

A

88
