The writers of factual stories try to recount events as they actually happened, but writers of fictional stories can depart from real people and events because the writers’ intents are not to retell a real-life event. The big distinction between factual and fictional narratives is based on a writer’s purpose. A fictional story is a made-up, or imagined, story the writer of a fictional story can create characters and events as he or she sees fit. A factual story is one that is based on, and tries to be faithful to, actual events as they unfolded in real life. In addition, a narrative can be factual or fictional. Any time you tell a story to a friend or family member about an event or incident in your day, you engage in a form of narration. Narration means the art of storytelling, and the purpose of narrative writing is to tell stories.
