2. Is the form of any work that deals, in part or
in whole, with information or events that are
not real, but rather, imaginary and theoretical
that is, invented by the author.
Although the term fiction refers in particular
to novels and short stories, it may also refer to
the theatre, including opera and ballet ,film,
television, poetry and song.
3. Plot: is what the character(s) did, said, and thought.
It is the Action Proper given unity by the Enveloping
Action, the Universal Action, the Archetypal Action.
Exposition: is the portion of a narrative that
introduces important background information to the
reader (like events occurring before the main plot or a
character's backstory) but is not part of the plot's
action itself.[
4. Foreshadowing: is a technique used by authors to
provide clues so the reader can predict what might
occur later in the story. An author drops subtle hints
about plot developments to come later in the story.
Rising Action: in the narrative of a work of
fiction, follows the exposition and leads up to the
climax.
Conflict: is generally speaking a necessary element
of fictional literature.
5. Climax: It is the moment of greatest danger for the
protagonist(s) and usually consists of a seemingly
inevitable prospect of failure – it surprises you to the
point that gets you excited to see what is to come in the
end.
Falling Action: The falling action is the part of a
story, usually found in tragedies and short stories,
following the climax . It leads up to the denouement
(or catastrophe).
Resolution: 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. Realistic fiction
Realistic fiction, although untrue,
could actually happen. Some
events, people, and places may
even be real. It may 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.
Science fiction often predicts
technologies that later become a
reality.
Non-realistic fiction 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).
Non-realistic fiction
7. Semi Fiction
Is a fiction implementing a great
deal of non-fiction, for example:
a fictional depiction "based on a
true story “(Spilled Milk: Based
on a True Story by K.L. Randis ),
or a fictionalized account, or a
reconstructed biography.
Even when the author claims
the story is true, there may be
significant additions and
subtractions from the true story
to make it more suitable for
storytelling.

Alice's Adventures in Wonderland,
