What is fiction?
Fiction is a form of storytelling, in which something is created in the imagination of the author. A work of fiction never claims to tell a true story instead, it immerses us in experiences in adventures/situations we may never experience in real life. It introduces us to people we would have never met in real life and takes us to places we may never have visited in real life.
What is made up in a fictional work?
The author invents the story, makes up the characters, the plot or storyline, the dialogue, and on some occasions even the setting. However, not all works of fiction are completely made up.
