The Description about Narrative Writing and How to Differ from Other Genres

Narrative writing is writing which tell the reader about imagination story in the past. Narrative writing is always focus in specific participants.

The purpose of narrative writing is to entertain the readers.

A narrative writing has some generic structure, they are:

1.             Orientation        : Introducing the participants and informing the time and    the place.

2.             Complication     : Describing the rising crises which the participants have to do with.

3.             Resolution         : Showing the way of participants to solve the crises.

When we write narrative writing, we usualy use past tense because we tell about past experience or story.

And to know the differences between narrative writing and other genres, we can find it from the following a specific structure of it. There are five elements that form this structure are:
1. Setting - When and where the story takes place.

2. Characters – The main character (protagonist) and other important people in the story

3. Problem - What challenge does the main character face.

4. Events - How the protagonist tries solving that problem.

5. Resolution - How is the problem ultimately solved by protagonist.

From those elements above,the most important to differ it from other genres is the conflicts. Narrative writing without conflicts isn’t narrative any more.

The Steps How to Make Narrative Writing

·              When you want to make narrative writing, you should decide your plot.

Example: Forward

·              And then you should set the situation that you will narate.

Example: One day there was a girl in a quite small village.

·              After that you should have a topic.
Example: Love

·               After you had a topic, you should make your topic become topic sentence.

          Example: Ainun loves Habibi in every way.

·              When you have topic sentence, you should develop it with supporting sentence.

Example: Habibi isn’t perfect, but Ainun can love Habibi well.

I asked some questions to my teacher if I didn’t understand about the materials. When I asked question to my teacher, my friend also asked question one by one. So, the class would be very crowded. Although the class was very crowded, I and my friend was very interested about the materials. In the third month I felt bored and dizzy because I was very tired. How could examination became important thing that I should pass after I was school for 12 years. I should get up early morning to go to school and got lesson from my teacher everyday.
