Stranger than Fiction


          To be an author it means to write a story or a book. To be a narrator it means that someone reads a story out loud or who reads a book out loud. The two are very different because reading a book or story is not the same as telling a story out loud. In the movie we watched in class Stranger Than Fiction mostly the thing was a narration, because the women was telling the story about the guy. Most of the time she was the one talking and like in the movie when he would get up in the morning while he would be brushing his teeth she would be the one saying it. In the movie she would be writing while narrating his whole life. As he would live his life she would be narrating it.

            After writing my paper I noticed it’s not that easy to be a narrator, because you want to write about a lot, but you also want everything to fit in right. For me it was hard to decide what to leave in my essay because I found a lot of interesting information but like an author you have to know what fits and what doesn’t. In my paper I talk about not only one specific person, but more about different types of people. I think writing about groups of people is more interesting than just talking about what person. Talking about groups hopefully makes my paper more interesting.
