Other Forms of Narrative Writing

From one birthday to the next, you travel 584 million miles—a journey around the sun. A lot can happen on that long journey. You might get a new baby brother or sister . . . or even a puppy. You might learn to ski or discover a favorite novel series. You might grow five inches taller and have to relearn how to use your legs. To tell about experiences that happen over a long period of time, you can write a phase autobiography.

If you’d rather write about someone else’s life, you could create a biographical story. Or if you want to write about a special person, place, or thing, you might try a descriptive essay. All of this practice with narrative writing will help you perform well when you respond to a narrative prompt on a test.
