Paragraphs in Fiction

Course modified date: 16 يونيو 2022

Learn about paragraphs, what it is and how they are used in fiction and non-fiction. This course is ideal for intermediate learners.

Introduction 

In this course we are going to look at what paragraphs are and the different ways they are used across different types of written text.

Paragraphs are used in fiction – these are pieces of writing that are made up, like stories and poems – and non-fiction – these are pieces of writing that are true and based on facts, like textbooks and newspaper articles.
However, fiction and non-fiction texts use paragraphs in very different ways.

Fiction is any kind of writing that is not real but is instead made up from things in the writer’s imagination.
In short stories and books, paragraphs are used in very important and special ways. They help a writer to organise a text so that it makes more sense to a reader, so the story is as enjoyable and as well-written as it can possibly be.
 
The five main reasons for using paragraphs in fiction writing are:
1.       To introduce new characters
2.       To introduce speech
3.       To change the mood, or emotion
4.       To introduce a new theme

5.       To move between time
