Week 8 Comments and Feedback

Feedback in
The comments that I have received have been very helpful to my writing.  They provide good ideas and information that I had not considered before.  The kinds of comments that have helped me the most have been the ones that provide different ideas or outlooks on my stories.  

Feedback out
I have yet to be disappointed with a story from someone in this class.  All of the stories have been very entertaining, and there are a large range of story styles and plots.  

Blog comments
The blogs are a marvelous way to get to know different people.  We each present ourselves differently, and I believe that they are tailored to our personalities.  Looking back, I would change a couple things about my intro.  There are times where I am reading someone else's intro and I think, "Oh, it would have been fun to discuss that part of myself too."

Looking forward
I like it when I am able to get the other person's perspective.  I enjoy hearing new ideas and points of view, and I would like the comments to reflect that.  


I like this one because it emphasizes being open and communicative.  It suggests that the 'critic' and the 'artist' are equals, instead of one being superior.

Story Week 9

There was once a college student named Laurel.  Laurel had spent weeks looking for a roommate.  She noticed a that someone else had put a post on the school’s Facebook page, saying that they also needed a roommate.  Laurel messaged this person, Olivia, and set up a time for them to meet. Laurel asked Olivia some things about herself, and came to find that they had the same major, enjoyed the same TV shows, and liked similar food.  ‘This is perfect!’ thought Laurel, ‘We are equals, this will work.’ Laurel asked Olivia if she would like to move in to the same apartment together, and Olivia accepted.  Laurel and Olivia lived together for a while.  Soon they fell into a routine.  Olivia would give Laurel a ride to school, and would pick up Laurel from her job in the evening.  They would both make dinner, but Olivia would pay for the basic groceries, like butter and milk.    One day, Laurel was talking to her friends abou...
