Problem
A. How does story telling function as a genre? What do we mean when we use the term genre? How is this different from thinking about narrative as merely a strategy?
B. How have you used narrative as a genre, for example have you written a short story, a memoir? When have you used narrative as a strategy in other writing genres, such as a research paper or essay? Give examples here, to demonstrate the difference. For example, have you ever written an anecdote to introduce a topic or shared a story as an example to make a point?
