Introduction - Features. Written to entertain. When people are involved, the writer lets the personalities carry the story. People are made to talk, act and interact.
- Long stories. Structured to keep the reader committed to staying with the story to the end. Sidebars are used to keep story length within readable bounds.
- Series. Written when the subject is too complex for a single story. Each part makes a specific point.
These story types rely for effectiveness on revealing details, meaningful quotes, and incidents that symbolize the thrust of the event or personality.
