Blog Post 7 of 12

It is very clear that this writer was influenced by her writing implement, the Crayon, (which along with Legos is the staple of all childlike instinct) and this influence is made distinct by a few casual drawings lightly littered in varying lilac tones across the page. She has drawn a flower and a smiley face to help emphasize her argument, and this increase in expressiveness makes her writing framed by happy images and actually changes the tone of the argument. In a feat that I could certainly not accomplish, the writer makes her argument lighter and gentler with the assistance of a few positive images. The writing is good because the writer hits a few solid points in the brief time she has. While simple, the language is straightforward and doesn't fiddle around with superfluous phrasing, making it both convincing and easy to read.

  1. I think it is interesting that you got one of the papers that had a picture. I think that you could write a little more on maybe why they could have included a flower. Do you think that this straightforward simple writing is more effective?
