When writing a narrative there are several things you should think about.  First we must think about the type of narrative. Is it free verse or does it have a clear thesis?  Next you should think about your audience and the theme of narrative.  For an Auto biographical narrative  it is important that as you tell the story an events that happen, you show a change in the character.  The Allyn Bacon Guide calls this change "old self versus new self", or the point where the main character changes in some way.  The Allyn Bacon guide also talks of the importance of plot, or an order of events with a rising action. You story should follow a plot bit also have a them.  Once your paper is written it should be able to be expressed in both plot and theme perspective. The difference between the two is plot perspective is specific to the story while theme is broad and can be applied liberally to other written works. Often theme perspective is more relatable. One skill I better want to work on is the difference between theme and plot perspective because if I can pick out the theme perspective in other writing then it will help me be able to do it for my own, and will make my narratives much better.
