Excerpt from A Course in Narrative Writing

No form of composition is perhaps more inherently interesting to students of all ages than is narration. Once fairly launched upon the task of representing in story-form some section of life as observed or imagined by them, neither time nor effort looms large in comparison with the joy of the attempt. The "drudgery of composition" seems in this field more frequently than in any other to be performed without consciousness of its being drudgery, the "laws of discourse" to exemplify themselves painlessly in the written product, sentences to acquire somewhat spontaneously a firm standing and a decisive movement, "fine writing" voluntarily to efface itself and a simple, effective, and at times even a relatively fine-wrought style to develop.

For this delightful outcome the subject-matter of narration is doubtless largely responsible. Its concern with "human documents," with concrete action and events, with feeling as well as thought, gives it in point of the student's interest marked advantages over descriptive, expository, or argumentative writing.
