Appeal of a Narrative

What gives a global narrative its appeal is not the topic, but the means and methods in which it arrives to our attention. A narrative can be brought to our attention through a text, but what makes that text stand out is in the way it starts. In order for a text to snatch attention, the first three determining phrases, must captivate the global audience. Other factors that make a global narrative more appealing are the medias in which it was communicated through. For example, first hand audio clips, videos, pictures or recited encounters can make a deeper impact. It's never the body that makes a narrative good, it's how it starts, how it gives you reason to invest time in what you're reading, and how the ending makes you satisfied with the time that you did invest.
