Narration tells a story by representing events in an orderly, logical sequence. Narration is the dominant pattern in many works of fiction and poetry, and it is
essential part of casual conversation. Narration also underlines folk and fairy tales
and radio and television news report. In short, any time you tell what happened, you are using narration. The skill you develop in narrative writing will also help you in other kinds of writing. Narratives, like other types of writing, need rich, specific details if they are to be convincing. When you write a narrative, you must be careful to keep verb tense consistent and accurate so your readers can follow the sequence of events. Naturally, you must shift tense to reflect an actual time shift in your narrative. Narration has five elements. They are ;
1) Character
2) Setting
3) Plot
4) Dialogue
5) Action
Many narratives present events in the exact order in which they occured, moving from first event to last. Whether or not you follow a strict chronological order depends on the purpose of your narrative. If you are writing a straight forward account of historical event or summarizing a record of poor management practices, you will probably want to move from beginning to end.
Like other essays, narratives have an introduction, a body and a conclusion. If your essays thesis is explicitly stated, it will, in most cases, appear in the introduction. The body of your essay will recount the events that make you your narrative, following a clear and orderly plan. Finally, the conclusion will give your reader the sense that your story is complete.
