What is the Narrative Arc? A Guide to Storytelling Through Story Structure
- A narrative arc, also known as a "story arc" or "dramatic arc," is the framework that gives structure to a story, including exposition, rising action, climax, falling action, and resolution. It guides the flow of events, creates compelling conflict, and provides a clear and engaging path for a story.
How do you write a narrative arc?
- To write a narrative arc, begin by outlining the major elements of your story:
1. Exposition
2. Rising
3. Action
4. Climax
5. Falling
6. Action resolution
Once you have selected the events you intend to use for each part of the plot, write your story, keeping in mind the purpose of each plot point.
