A narrative essay is basically placing yourself as the narrator of a story or in simpler terms, telling a story. The topic I would like to do for the narrative essay would have to be about my first day in a new school/college because I feel I have quite a bit to share about that experience.
ReplyDeleteEveryone has their own experience about their first day in a new school and my own is quite interesting. I would write about that topic because I too would have a lot to share about that experience.
DeleteI agree, everyone has that "first day of school" moment. And sharing it can make a very interesting story. It might also be helpful to those that are about to start.
