Fiction is any narrative work whose content is not factual, containing events that are imaginary and not based on history. There are two types: realistic fiction where events could actually happen, and fantasy fiction where events involve impossible elements. Non-fiction presents factual information about real people, places, and events, though the presentation may not be fully accurate. Key elements of fiction include plot, exposition, foreshadowing, climax, falling action, and resolution. Conflict is also important and can involve a character against themselves, other people, society, nature, or supernatural forces. A Venn diagram shows the relationship between fiction and non-fiction.

2. NICITOF
the form of any work that deals, in part or in whole, with
information or events that are not factual, but rather,
imaginary and theoretical

3. Kinds of Fiction
• LISATRICE NICITOF
– although untrue, could actually happen. Some events, the people, and
the places may even be real. It can be possible that in the future
imagined events could physically happen. For example, Jules Verne's
novel From The Earth To The Moon was proven possible in 1969,
when Neil Armstrong landed on the Moon.
• ONN-LISATRICE NICITOF
– is that in which the story's events could not happen in real life, which
involve an alternate form of history of mankind other than that
recorded, or need impossible technology. A good deal of fiction books
are like this, including works by Lewis Carroll (Alice In Wonderland), J.
K. Rowling (Harry Potter), and J. R. R. Tolkien (The Lord of the Rings).
• MISE-CONIFIT
– is fiction implementing a great deal of non-fiction,[2] for example: a
fictional depiction "based on a true story", or a fictionalized account,
or a reconstructed biography.

4. fundamental elements of fiction
• TOLP, or storyline, is often listed as one of the
fundamental elements of fiction. It is the
rendering and ordering of the events and actions
of a story
• NOITISOPXE is the portion of a narrative that
introduces important background information to
the reader
• GNIWODAHSEROF is a technique used by authors
to provide clues so the reader can predict what
might occur later in the story.

5. • The XAMILC often resembles that of the classical
comedy. It is the moment of greatest danger for
the protagonist(s) and usually consists of a
seemingly inevitable prospect of failure.
• The GNILLAF action is the part of a story, usually
found in tragedies and short stories, following
the climax and showing the effects of the climax.
• RENOITULOS occurs after the climax, where the
conflict is resolved. It may contain a moment of
final suspense, during which the final outcome of
the conflict is in doubt.

6. • NOCTCILF is generally speaking a necessary
element of fictional literature. As Brooks and
Warren said in Understanding Fiction and as
many others have noted, no conflict, no story.

7. Types of Conflict
• Person vs. Self is the theme in literature that places a
character against their own will, confusion, or fears.
• Person vs. Person is a theme in literature in which the
main character's conflict with another person is the
focus of the story.
• Person vs. Society is a theme in fiction in which a main
character's, or group of main characters', main source
of conflict is social traditions or concepts.
• Person vs. Nature is the theme in literature that places
a character against forces of nature.
• Person vs. Supernatural is a theme in literature that
places a character against supernatural forces.

8. ONN- FOTICNI
is the form of any narrative, account, or other
communicative work whose assertions and
descriptions are understood to be factual. This
presentation may be accurate or not—that is, it
can give either a true or a false account of the
subject in question—however, it is generally
assumed that authors of such accounts believe
them to be truthful at the time of their
composition or, at least, pose them to their
audience as historically or empirically true.
