Guidelines in Narrative Writing


1. Use verbs and verb phrases to move the story in an
interesting manner.

Examples:
● I tried to demur, but my mother showed me her angry
face.
● Early in the morning the next day, I was awakened by
the cold breeze from the ocean.
Learn about It!

2. Use transition words to signal time or sequence order.

Examples:
● Early in the morning the next day, I was awakened by
the cold breeze from the ocean.
● A short time later, we arrived at the farm.

3. Use descriptive language.

Examples:
● A bit disappointed, I decided to sit on the couch while I
wait for dinner to be ready.
● Under the blistering heat of the sun, farmers were
working in the rice field.

4. Write an introduction that grabs attention.


Example:
● One Friday night at dinner, my parents told me that we’d be
spending the long weekend at my grandparents’ house in the
province. I tried to demur, but my mother showed me her angry
face. It was the kind of face that told me immediately that our
visit was important. Aside from the fact that I hate traveling,
there was no internet connection in my grandparents'
house. I really thought it would be boring, but I learned a
lot of things instead.

5. Plan your narrative using an outline or graphic organizer.
