person is.

FIVE MAIN STAGES OF TO STORY-TELLING
A setting (or backdrop) is the time and
geographic location within a narrative, either
nonfiction or fiction. It is a literary element. The
setting initiates the main backdrop and mood
for a story. ... Elements of setting may
include culture, historical period, geography,
and hour.

Sometimes you can guess the time through clues and

hints that are in the story. For example, when you go to
bed, it is usually night time. The setting is both your room
(the physical location) and nighttime (the time of day). If
you go to school, your lessons usually are in your
classroom during the day.
 In fiction, a character (sometimes
known as a fictional character) is a
person or other being in a narrative
(such as a novel, play, television series,
film, or video game).

One way to classify characters is by examining how they change (or

don't change) over the course of a story. Grouped in this way by
character development, character types include the dynamic
character, the round character, the static character, the stock
character, and the symbolic character.
 A problem in a story is a
conflict that affects the
characters or causes big
disasters but is usually solved at
the end.
A story problem is a simple way to envision your character's plot arc. Choose
your main problem, break it down into smaller challenges, and allow the
main solution to appear as the character tries to deal with these tasks.

IDENTIFY THE CONFLICT: The most effective way to identify a

conflict is to write a CONFLICT STATEMENT. A conflict statement is a
sentence that briefly states what the main character wants and what is
preventing him/her from attaining that desire.
 Crisis means decision or dilemma. In a story, it's
the do-or-die moment, that last chance where the
protagonist must gather all their strength, ingenuity,
resourcefulness, and courage in one final effort to
defeat the opposing forces guarding the prize

turning point.
 The resolution is the end of the story. It
occurs after the CLIMAX. It is when you
learn what happens to the characters
after the CONFLICT is resolved.
The resolution puts the events and characters in a
stable situation, ending the tension of a story. ... The
resolution offers the reader a final confrontation
between struggling forces. The resolution depicts the
main problem that characters must solve.
The resolution needs to offer the reader a sense of continuation in the lives of the
characters. Even a standalone book should hint at the life the characters will lead
after the reader has closed the back cover. 4. The resolution should give the
reader a concrete example of how the character's journey has changed him.
