Chapter Two Reading Notes:
- "We're all stories in the end" has a lot of different interpretations and so do many of the things we write
- Narration is how we convey our stories and there's different techniques to that, such as plot.
- Scope is the boundaries of plot (so like what you'll be covering); sequence and pacing is the order of the events and the amount of time you give to each event (this determines how the reader sees the story)
- Remember the elements of plot
- Different ways to structure plot, but it needs to be there
- Point of view is very important to your story, along with the tone
- Building characters is vital to the story, they are needed to bring your story forward
- Stories can be multi-media or multi-genre stuff
- Overall the article reminded me about the basics of storytelling and how I need to be putting more thought into each layer of my story and how it'll best be portrayed. Even small things like what POV works best for the story can really change how it turns out in the end.
