Sounds Like I'm Talking to You
In this blog post, I feel that I did well at communicating to the readers that the things found in my wallet are not who I am. Material possessions do not make up a person. These things may give you an idea of certain aspects of that persons life, but not a full picture. I used the example of the grocery store discount cards to show this. By looking at the cards, you would think someone shops a lot, but by knowing the actual person, you would understand that they've simply lived multiple places.
This type of writing has really changed the way I think about writing to an audience. It's one thing to write to explain something, but a seperate skill to cause thoughts and questions to stir in your readers minds.

ReplyDeleteI could see how someone could be misinterpreted by the items in their wallet. I really enjoyed this assignment because it gave the opportunity to talk about different ways one item can and will be interrupted.
