1. Looking back
I am very glad we were encouraged to look back at our previous work for this assignment. I feel like recently with the semester in full swing I have honestly been lacking. My work in the first two weeks are much more organized and are better written. I feel like I have a better path to follow now that I have somewhat re-corrected my thought process on taking notes. I have been having trouble writing my notes "as an author." It has been difficult for me to think in that way and I am going to work on getting in that mind set. I just feel like I am writing WAY too many notes and not really getting anything out of them for storytelling. With all of that being said I am going to go back and re-read our assignment guidelines for the note-taking. In regards to the storytelling I am having a pretty good time with it. It is a lot of fun to re-write someone else's story and make it your own. It is also good practice for someone like me, who struggles with creative writing, to have a path to go on.
2. Favorite image
I chose this image because it is so powerful. Even though she is supposed to be this hideous thing her treacherous beauty shines through. I enjoy anytime a woman is cast as a villain or a hero. The fact that she is this powerful being at all is a nice change from the norm. Her ending is not great but she symbolizes a creature that does not lose easily.
3. Looking forward
After looking back at my previous stories and note-taking I have a better understanding of what I should do. Especially the note-taking. I am going to be more organized with those and work at seeing the stories as an author instead of a reader.
