What is Fiction? (My Self Definition)

FICTION is a story because it piques the interest
of readers and makes them ponder, relate and reflect to the actions and experiences of the characters.

FICTION is a not a real life situation, rather it is simply based on the settings of real life but in fiction elements.

FICTION is a story because it tells the adventures and experiences of characters in your own story. Will they be Sad, Happy or Angry? Will the couple be together in the end.

Lastly, Fiction is a story because it makes a question to the readers "What if?" what are the possible elements that can change? or what actions should the character take instead.

FICTION is also a Story because there are Fanfictions.

You drug pushers, holdup men, and do-nothings, you better get out because I'll kill you.” (Human Rights Watch, Conde, 2017) On May 9, 2016, the former president said those words beginning the herald of the campaign against illegal drugs— The “War on Drugs”.
