Assignment 8

What was most interesting to me in other people's writings were that we had very similar ideas and viewpoints. We just went different ways about explaining them and used different writerly choices to help prove our points. What was most interesting about my writing was the writerly choices I chose to focus on. While revising my essay, I'll make sure to incorporate my feelings in my text rather than just summarizing Orlean's piece. I will be sure to incorporate some of the things I've said in my blogs.

For my first essay I really didn't consider my audience. In my next essay I will consider my audience.I think the people I am writing to are people like me. People who felt some type of way about taxidermy, but were changed by reading Susan Orlean's piece. My tone is more explaining. I was explaining what Susan Orlean did in "Lifelike" and why. I think my essay is set apart from my classmates for the simple fact that the things I'm saying in it are my thoughts and opinions, so it will automatically be different from anyone else.
