I am so excited that I got to read everyone my piece for my independent study. I thought your feedback was great, and I'm already working in the parts suggested. It meant a lot to me to have such positive responses from the class, and it really was a confidence booster to sending the writing out.
I was really nervous that it was not good enough to be sent out, however, I think that reading it to my peers was very helpful in realizing my potential! I may be rejected a few times from the big publishing companies, but it was nice to have a group of people willing to listen. I hope that with your edits my paper will improve and stand a better chance at being published!
Thanks again!

Emily I really enjoyed your piece and I think you really were able to get into the mind of a broken teenage girl, which is what the best writers do. I wish you the best of luck in getting your piece published, but personally, I have yet to read anything quite like that so you have that going for you. I can even see you piece being used in classrooms throughout the United States, because they always give kids the same boring books with the same morals to read, but this is new and fresh, and still hits the important life lesson aspect that schools teach.
ReplyDeleteGood Luck :-)
Your story was hilarious, and I thought the main character was so dynamic. I felt like I actually knew this person. Your descriptions were great, and I didn't have to try to 'imagine' what the settings and people were like. Good luck with it in the future.
ReplyDeleteYes, thanks for sharing such a personal and important piece, Emily! I can't wait to read the final prodct. You have to send it to me, and I'll forward it to the WC staff!
