Reflections of a Narrative

I unfortunately did not set my alarm on Friday so I did not come in to class to have my style narrative peer edited. However, I did have my mom (who is a doll) look over it for me and give me new ideas. She actually thought up the idea of the mythological beast, the hydra. She's a mythology nut and when she read over my paper, she said it kind of reminded her of the hydra. I really liked that idea and so I incorporated it into my paper.

My own voice is projected into the paper by my use of parentheses. I use them all the time in whatever I write. I think perhaps I used it too often in this paper but I really like the repetition. It was like when I write and I choose a word, I have to think to make sure that it's the right word. I thought it might set it apart by using my thought process into the paper, which was about my thought process when writing papers (Ha!).

I don't know if I have ever written a narrative before and this was interesting for me to do. It was kind of hard at first to decide what to write and where to start but once I did, it was much easier.
