When I am reading ”The Formal Elements of Fiction” I felt I was reviewed and rethink many tips about how to write a fiction. When I was in middle or high school, we learned and read many fiction. Personally, I more like Sci-fiction because it have many interesting and excited plots, characters, and setting. One of my favorite science fiction is called Crash by J.G. Ballard. In the beginning of the novel, the main character got a car accident, as crash. However, after this accident his attitude was not unhappy, on the other hand, he was starting find fun or interesting on get crash. Because he find the accident is not seen as shocking, but as the liberation of new sexual possibilities that have yet to be explored. Just like a couple have sex in a car that was involved in this car accident. In additional, he felt more excited and better than normal vaginal sex. According to this article, ”In the same way that a painter uses shape, color, perspective, and other aspects of visual art to create a painting, a fiction writer uses character, setting, plot, point of view, theme, and various kinds of symbolism and language to create artistic effect in fiction.” I totally agree with this point, in a good fiction, the writer use magic sentence to set up or creative a story. When people read, always can imagination of many plot. This is the attractive of fiction.
