This week, Alida and Kathryn go deeper into the subject of writing time, specifically how to handle chronology in narrative. We have three very short examples that illustrate different methods of structuring your narrative to move the story and reader through time. Francisco holds us in the present, with her as she writes, while drawing us back into her remembrances. Sukruangrung uses a scene break to create a clear delineation between in-scene writing and exposition. McCloy keeps us in the story with her younger self, using very limited narrative interjections to add a little bit of hindsight to her piece. All of the writings are excellent and each method works equally well. I screen share the texts, so if you like to read along, watch on the website.
