Language: it's all around us. Narrative is the element that captivates our minds in the tallest of tails. Understanding narrative theory would allow us to be better communicators. In this article, I will go through the proper steps of writing a good narrative

Instructions
1. First write a hook. This acts as an attention grabby. Some kind of catch line or a slap in the face.
2. Orientation comes next. This brings the basics of who, what, when and where. You're setting the scene for what is going to take place.
3. Next is the complication action. This is the juicy part: the conflict. This action has to disrupt whatever balance of peace in the story and it is the problem that needs to be resolved.
4. Since you have a conflict, there must come a resolution [well most of the time, some stories just don't get resolved and leave you hanging, but that's for another article].
5. The story must come to an evaluation. This is what you and other people involved think or feel about the events and how things turned out and happened. You can get as creative as you want with this.
6. Then comes your conclusion or the coda, which brings you back to your present moment and time.
