20 PTS AND BRAINLIEST ITS MAY BE A BUT HARD PLS ANSWER CORRECTLY AND FOLLOW ALLL INSTRUCTIONS IF U DONT KNOW THE ANSWER THEN DONT ANSWER!!! Step 1: Brainstorm High. Low and Turning Points

Using a table format, brainstorm 5 High Points, 5 Low Points, and 5 Turning Points in your life thus far.
Use point-form notes, which may include a short code or phrase or quote to identify for your eyes only, what the gist of each point signifies. This is a draft for you. No one else will look at it or grade it, but the process of examining your life for events that stand out in some fashion will help propel a piece of creative non-fiction or a story.
Step 2: Choose the heat.

Choose the top three events from your brainstormed lists. Which are the most potent? Which are the ones that really speak to you?
Then, after you have three narrowed down, see if there may be a common thread. Is there a link between that low point and turning point? Are the narrative threads connected?
Step 3: Write.

Write a story based on one of the hottest or most visceral points in your life. Choose whether the point of view voice will be first person ("I") or whether the tale will be told from the perspective of a third person narrator. You could review point of view...
2. Feel free to embellish. Exaggerate. Add untruths to the base of non-fiction. Fiction is usually based on some aspect of real experience that the writer has crafted to be their own.

3. Make this story your own. Remember, this is your personal narrative.

o

what: when quoting a source, use the author’s words verbatim, or word-for-word. this means you shouldn’t change any grammar, punctuation, spelling, etc. put quotations around the words to tell your reader where the quote begins and where it ends.

you also need to acknowledge the author. for example, if using mla format for your research paper, you should have in-text citations with the author’s name and page number listed at the end of each quote.

when: use quotations to provide concrete examples to support your claims. using direct quotations is a great way to build your credibility on the subject. it’s also a good idea to quote your source when the author states things in a powerful way. if you think he or she said it best, then use the exact words to share the ideas.

example: in the short story “a jury of her peers”, mrs. hale compares mrs. wright to her caged bird, saying “she—come to think of it, she was kind of like a bird herself. real sweet and pretty, but kind of timid and—fluttery. how—she—did—change” (glaspell).

paraphrasing

what: paraphrasing differs from quoting because you restate the passage in your own words. since you don’t use the author’s words, you don’t need to use quotation marks. however, you still need to acknowledge the author for his or her ideas.

when paraphrasing a text, you should communicate the full meaning of the text; don’t change the meaning. it can be a condensed version of the text, or it could end up being longer than the source it’s paraphrasing.

when: you use paraphrasing when you take notes, or explain a chart or diagram to someone. paraphrasing highlight the important parts of a larger text. it also allows you to simplify the ideas for your readers.

example:

original: “it was no ordinary thing that called her away–it was probably further from ordinary than anything that had ever happened in dickson county. but what her eye took in was that her kitchen was in no shape for leaving: her bread all ready for mixing, half the flour sifted and half unsifted” (glaspell).

paraphrase: as mrs. hales walks around mrs. wright’s home, she notices that the kitchen is in disarray as if she was in the middle of baking bread (glaspell).

which is the following what are you asking?

the underline word is basically like a prepositional phrase.
