For our first formal assignment we will be doing a Narrative Project, which is a descriptive piece of writing about a time in your life. Throughout high school I didn't do much of writing, especially narratives. Before this class I wasn't even sure what narrative writing was. I never took writing classes in high school and in english class we mostly just wrote five paragraph essays and research papers. I'm glad I got the chance to experience narrative writing in this class, it is now one of my favorite genres to write. I enjoy how the descriptive words help you visualize and make you feel like you are re experiencing a moment. For example in blog post #3 , Composing an emotional scene, I described a difficult time in my life which made me feel those emotions all over again. I also did the same for my blog post #4, Composing an Emotional Scene with Dialogue and Symbolism. It is interesting to me how you can feel those same emotions twice just through writing.
My memoir is going to be based on my blog assignment #3 where I describe in detail what I was feeling in that exact moment. I hope that this narrative captures my emotions and that you can get a good grasp on how I experienced such a difficult time in my life.
