As I hung high above my kitchen floor My soul was left sobbing, completely sore. The focus of this post is how I can and how I did help my memoir become a stronger piece. From watching the video on reflective writing I've come to notice that I'm only focusing in one direct (past) and how I can focus on both (past and future).

I did not work with anyone because what I endured through my memoir I was alone for and have the best recollection of. While revising of first draft I definitely will go to my mother because she was there for me towards the end, and I disclose everything with her. What rhetorical mode and genre are you using? The rhetorical mode I am using is narration and the genre is creative nonfiction meaning "true stories, well told" - Lee Gutkind When did you write this project? Good approach? I started the week before it was due because i was nervous that I wouldn't have something completed, start to finish. It was definitely a good approach because I was able to play around with different ways to start it off and include details throughout in a beneficial way to help the read know what was going on in my head at the time.

The topic I chose was a life defining moment in my life and either option would change me entire life and it was the most important thing that has ever happened to me. It was the best choice to right about that I could've pick from my life so far. How did it feel to write this narrative ("during, after, and since")?
