Literary Elements and Storytelling

Dialogue is a conversation between characters. It reveals character traits and it advances the action or plot in a story. Dialogue shows the speaker’s exact words and is usually enclosed in quotation marks (“”).

Plot is the sequence of events that happen in a story. These events can be presented in chronological, or time, order. Sometimes, they may be told through flashbacks. A flashback is a scene from the past that interrupts the sequence of events. Flashbacks show a character’s memories, dreams, or accounts of past events.
