Fionúir Mc Bennett, What is common across the writing styles





Now I’d like to list what is common across the writing styles — Narrative, Poetry and Play.


Preparation is a must for all writing styles (who, what, when, where) 

Characters (e.g, the narrator, the schoolgirl, the teacher)

Settings (schoolyard), conflict (who is the best?), climax (really interesting or exciting part)

Good structure (beginning, middle and end)

It can be fiction or non-fiction

Carefully chosen language to grab the reader’s attention and keep them reading (sparky language (adjectives, adverbs)!)

The use of writing tools such as alliteration, onomatopoeia, metaphor, simile, rhyming

Good storyline

Proofreading texts again and again (grammar, spelling, capital letters)

A message to think about and learn from

Entertainment and fun for the reader

Express thoughts or feelings

Visual presentation (images, colours, font)

Show your passion for writing
 

Best wishes Fionúir 4C
