What are the main features of fiction?

Answer 1

Fiction can be anything you want. You can have make-believe characters, names, creatures... the sky is the limit! (unless there is no sky) Basically, fiction comes in many forms. There is historical fiction, just pure fiction, fact-fiction, etc. Fiction usually contains things that are not true. You could always take an event that actually happened, but write it from a point of view that either wasn't there or couldn't tell the story. For example, I am writing a book about medieval times. However, none of the characters are real or were real. I include mythical creatures and bonds between people that do not exist. Fiction is basically anything not true or only partly true. Nonfiction can only be written if everything is the truth, so fiction is anything just a little bit less than true to totally false.
