   • What have you decided to focus on for your education narrative? Why have you chosen to tell this particular story?
   • I have chosen to write about my experience after graduating high school trying to adjust to college and becoming more of an adult. Have chosen to tell this story because I’m sure readers will come to understand and relate to my story.

   • What is the meaning/significance of your story? Why should people read it? Write this out in one sentence.

   This story is significant to me because I’m changing and growing into another person different from my high school self. People should read it because I”m sure they also have gone through this change one way or another.

   • In one word, how do you want people to feel when they are done reading your story? 

   Empathy 

   • Freewrite details you remember about the situation you are describing: include people, places, dialogue, feelings, thoughts, etc. that are in some way connected to your story.

   My high school friends and friend that is going to the same college as me and my parents 

   Second, review what you have so far and try to label the features of your narrative arc. 

   • Exposition/Inciting Incident (who, what, when, where, and how does your story begin?)

   At the beginning of my senior year of high school

   • Rising Action (you should include a lot of the story details here)

   Applying for College and my first job 

   • Climax (the moment of most drama and significance)

   Attending college 

   • Falling Action (what happened after?)

   For now, that story is still continuing 

   • Resolution (what was the result of this experience? What is the significance?)

   There is no resolution yet still trying to find my way, maybe there will be one when I finish college
