In our first formal assignment we will be doing a Narrative project, a descriptive piece of writing about something real from your life. I have written many narrative pieces in my life, in both high school and in college. I have written about many emotional scenes from my life especially situations including sports from when I was a kid. I have also written about times of sadness like when a loved when has passed, for example Blog Assignment #4. I always knew what I needed to do to write a good narrative, especially that I needed to thoroughly explain and portray the emotions I felt in that time of my life in a way that the reader could understand them. I plan on writing something that is meaningful to me and can become meaningful to the reader as they make their way through my story as I did in Blog Assignment #3 where I explained an emotional scene from my childhood. I feel as if when I began writing this narrative piece it was difficult not only because I had to try and really go back to how I felt then and how I feel now but help the audience feel what I felt in that moment and also what I feel as I look back at that low moment in my life.
Here is where I will present each draft of my memoir.
