In novels, a simple list format could be a series of items without any special numbering or bullets, just presented one after another in the text. This is often used for descriptive purposes, like listing the contents of a room - 'There were books, a lamp, and a chair in the corner.' Another type is the indented list which can be used to show sub - points or details related to a main item. For example, if a character is thinking about a plan, the main steps could be on one line, and then the details of each step are indented below. And alphabetical lists can also be used in some cases, especially when the order is not related to time or importance but rather for the sake of organization, like listing characters' names starting from A - Z.

Lists in novels can take various forms. A common one is the sequential list which follows a particular order, like the order of events in a story. For example, 'The first event was the arrival of the stranger. Then came the strange noises at night. After that, the discovery of the hidden letter.' Another is the grouped list, where items are grouped together based on a certain characteristic. For instance, in a story about a market, there could be a group of food items - 'fruits such as apples, bananas, and oranges; and vegetables like carrots, tomatoes, and cucumbers' listed together. There is also the contrastive list where two or more sets of items are listed to show differences, like 'The good guys had honesty, kindness, and courage; while the bad guys had deceit, cruelty, and cowardice.'

Second Take On Romance - The A-List Actor Wants Me

One sunny day, Shen Jingwei, a Z-list actor, received an opportunity to attend an open-call audition the very next day. It was for the role of an antagonist in a new BL C-Drama, "Dance Of The Dragons", which was adapted from a novel of the same title. He agreed to join the audition due to several factors, among which his manager's threat to jump off the 20th floor, his dire need for money, and also the fact that his rank in the film industry could not go any lower. One look at the panel of judges made him want to turn on his heel to leave, but it was all too late. Because who would expect the poor Z-List actor to meet his mortal enemy/ex-boyfriend, Yan Renzhong, the A-List Actor responsible for his decline long before he even learned how to fly? ------------------ "You and I... are playing a couple of lovers, who will go on to get married and have children with each other." Shen Jingwei could sense blood coming up his throat. What was the point of saying it out loud, again? "Yes," he forced himself to agree nonetheless. Yan Renzhong pinned him with a stare. "We have unresolved issues from the past. I hope you won't let them affect your and my performance in the drama. Act the professional you are supposed to be." "..." "And don't call me 'Emperor Yan' anymore." Yan Renzhong left after delivering one blow after another, not even waiting to see if Shen Jingwei succumbed to his injuries or not. What? Whattt? Whattttttttt?

Graphic novels have a format that is centered around visual panels. The layout of these panels, the size, and the use of color all contribute to the storytelling. Books, however, are typically formatted with text in paragraphs and chapters. There's no visual component dictating the flow in the same way. For example, in a graphic novel, a large panel might be used to show a big moment, while in a book, it would be described in words.
