Elements of Fiction

Fiction writing that comes from an author’s imagination. might be based on real events.

Characters the people, animals, or imaginary creatures that take part in the action of the story. the main character is who the story is centered around. minor characters are those characters that interact with the main character.

Characters Protagonist-main character; you are rooting for this character; “good guy”. Antagonist-the character who stands in the way of the protagonist; the “bad guy”. Examples: Batman vs. The Joker, Harry Potter vs. Voldemort

Setting The TIME and PLACE in which the story takes place. The time can be past, present, or future; day or night; and any season. The place is anywhere action of the story occurs; may be real or imaginary.

Plot The sequence of events in a story- what happens! Conflict-main problem or struggle Resolution-conclusion of the story, how problem is solved and how story ends.

Theme The main message the writer wishes to share. It may be a life lesson or a belief about people and their actions. Most themes are not stated directly; you need to determine the theme by thinking about the actions and consequences the author puts together.

Theme Review what happened to the main character. Did he or she change? What lessons did they learn? Look for statements that go beyond the action of the story to say something important about life or people. Does the title have a significant meaning that might relate to the theme?
