A story is something that is of purpose to someone. This could be a fictional tale, a non-fiction factual piece, or something that is designed to narrate a specific event. There are certain ways that make a story better, for example when someone is telling (writing) a story the main thing is to target who is in the story, what it will be about, and when the story takes place.

A good thing to note while writing a story whether it be fictional or non fictional is to figure out who will be listening to the story. Who is the main audience? When layering a story it should, in my opinion, be like a news story, where the most important, key information is discussed first then it trickles down the importance scale as the story continues.

Lastly, I think stories are important because it is a creative outlet to give others information about something that may spark their interests or common opinions. Stories are a great way of communications
