Chapter 6, Story Structure Mike Kittrell, Mobile Register Joel Sartore The structure of the storyhow it's toldtakes its form from the nature of the event. When Amtrak's Sunset Limited plunges into the waters of a remote bayou in the Mobile Delta, the story is told with a direct lead and a linear structure. When the story is about a young man learning the ropes on the family ranch, the writer may use the storytelling or narrative structure, rambling through the day's work with the youth. | ||||||
