The purpose of the narrative essay is for you to convey a moment from your childhood that impacted the adult that you have become. Using descriptive language (simile, metaphor) and an engaging voice, you must tell of your experience in a meaningful way. You must use the “show, don’t tell” concept of description and also utilize dialogue and varied sentence structure within paper. It should end up creating a short memoir that lends insight into your current adult identify. Do not need to choose a large or monumental event when brainstorming, small events can impact our lives in big ways.
