Characterization – the means by which writers present and reveal characters Two type of characters 1. Flat/Static character – are relatively and often presented as twodimensional. It remains the same all throughout the story 2. Round/Dynamic character – are complex figures with different characteristics which may sufficiently surprise the readers as they undergo changes during the course of the story. Other types of characters 1. Protagonist – is the main character around whose life or experience the story revolves. 2. Antagonist – is the character who stand in opposition to the protagonist. Point of View – is the narrative perspective which describes the position of the narrator; that is, the character of the storyteller in relation to the story being told. Types of Point of View 1. First person POV – the narrator is also a character in the story. Uses “I”, “we”. 2. Second person POV – the narrator refers to the protagonist using the second-person personal pronoun “you”. It is the less common narrative technique in fiction.

3. Third person POV – the narrator is an unspecified or uninvolved who conveys the story from outside. Uses “he”, “she”, “it”, “they”. a. Third person omniscient – the narrator has knowledge of all times, people, places, and events, including all characters’ thoughts. b. Third person limited – the narrator know everything about a character but is onlu limited to that certain character.

a person or a persona (identity or entity that has a contribution or effect to the development of the story) Plot – is the narrative perspective which describes the position of the narrator; that is, the character of the storyteller in relation to the story being told. Two Kinds of Plot 1. Linear plot – the plot-line follows a single and chronological flow of event. a. Beginning 

c. End 
