There are a few reasons why the author tells a story.<\/p>\n<p><b>Two of the main ones are:<\/b><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>The entertainment value of the story, and<\/li>\n<li>To convey a larger point.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>\nSometimes, the reader is not worried about conveying a point, but they are just telling a story just for the purpose of the entertainment value of that story. Other times it is to convey a larger point to the reader. As a reader, you should constantly evaluate the ways in which the author uses narration to accomplish his\/her goals.<br \/>\n<b>There are a couple of keys to the effective use of narration:<\/b><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>The point in the story should be self-evident. It should be obvious to the reader why the author is telling that story.<\/li>\n<li>The author shouldn&#8217;t include any unrelated or contradictory details. Anytime the author uses unrelated or contradictory details, it undermines his\/her own agenda.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>\nThose are a couple of things that you as a reader should be looking for to evaluate whether or not the writer used narration effectively.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Rhetorical Strategy of Narration<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","template":"","meta":{"footnotes":""},"class_list":{"0":"post-7851","1":"page","2":"type-page","3":"status-publish","5":"page_type-video","6":"page_domain-english"},"aioseo_notices":[],"aioseo_head":"\n\t\t<!-- All in One SEO Pro 5.0.1.1 - aioseo.com -->\n\t<meta name=\"description\" content=\"This video tutorial helps explain the basics of Rhetorical Strategy of Narration.
