This week I was able to figure out a lot of ideas for my WP3. The list of different genres on the lesson plan was really helpful because it helped me decide what I wanted to do for my own project. I like this project more than the other two writing projects we’ve done, because it’s allowing me to think outside of the box. On my WP2, I received a comment about not using enough of my own “voice” throughout, and I don’t see that being a problem with this last project. I was stuck between two different ideas for my older audience genre, but I got some great feedback on my PB3A and was able to determine that the second idea was much better. I know I will have to spend more time thinking about this part of the project, because I’m not as confident about it as I am about the first part. The time suggestion you gave in class was helpful as well. I’ve spent most of my time on my younger audience genre so far, because I have to get really creative with it, but I realize that I don’t have to spend the exact amount of time on both for them to be effective. Reading everyone’s ideas in their PB3As was so cool and totally inspired me to get as creative as possible with my own project. I’m excited to see how this project turns out!
I also received the comment from Zach that I was not using enough of my own voice in the WP2. I think a lot of people focused more on answering all of the questions within the prompt and forgot to really add a personal analysis. This next writing project gives us a lot of space to really create some original work though. It should be a lot easier to include your voice. I actually found myself spending more time on creating the adult genre than the child’s genre, just because it is a lot harder to entertain adults. Good luck with the project! You sound like you are on the right track!
