<em>In medias res </em>means in the middle of the action.
<em>In medias res</em> is a literary term that<u> is used to refer to a text that starts in the middle of the plot instead of starting with the beginning of the story</u>. When writers employ <em>in medias res</em>, they usually present the events that happened before by means of flashbacks or dialogue. Famous literary works such as Homer's <em>Iliad</em> and<em> Odyssey </em>and Shakespeare's <em>Hamlet </em>begin in medias res; in other words, <u>they go straight to the heart of the plot</u>.

Dear Smith Family,
During the pandemic, I wasn't able to do fun things like going to the cinema or go to my friends birthday parties. All I could do was watch tv, clean the house , going to do online school and playing video games. I wish you and your family the best and stay strong.
Sincerely,
