“Unlocking the Secrets: How the Hidden Elements of Plot Can Transform Your Storytelling!”
Plot Elements
There are undoubtedly countless plot elements that storytellers can call upon to enhance the plotting process. Today, we’re going to look at a handful of the most basic plot elements that make for good storytelling.
Backstory
There’s more to every story than what we actually read. Each character has a past, and there are usually important events that have taken place prior to the story itself; sometimes the past drives the action in the present. This is backstory, which is best described as what happened before this story took place. While most backstory never makes its way into the narrative, it’s useful for an author to have full understanding of a fictional backstory, as the details of the past will seep into the narrative in subtle ways that make it deeper and more realistic.
