Writing Review Week

I think the story I've had the most fun writing would be between my newspaper style story and the story I wrote about Amarterasu. I like my news paper article story because it was such a fun writing style. Also, I liked the story it was pulled from but took a lot of liberties when it came to changing and adding characters and storylines. Once I start writing it's hard for me to stop. I don't like going in with a full outline of the story. I rather ket me fingers wonder and my influences to be impromptu and wild. My story about Amarterasu was really great to write because it was centered around a strong female character. She was very interesting to write about and create a story around.

I have two different writing options I want to try in the coming weeks. The first would be to write from the point of view of a minor character. I think this will be cool because you can create their backstory, but stay true to the facts of the original story. Another options I'd like to try, is writing to a song. So, I would play a song that I really was digging this last week and then write a story to it. I would follow the rhythm and climax of the song.  I think this may create a really cool and dynamic story.

The feedback from Professor Gibbs and the students has been really helpful! Once you get invested in a story it can be hard to see a different side of it, which is why I like have the students feedback. Their feedback is especially helpful when they catch grammar or spelling errors that I didn't catch during proofreading.

Baby Goat

I have a felling this week there will be a lot of baby goat pictures. I'm not sorry.
