A. What invention strategy did you find worked best for you? Why do you think this strategy was the most helpful? What other prewriting did you do before writing your draft?
The strategy that I found to work best for me was to construct a game plan. For the most part, I stuck with my game plan to help me write my essay. I did not do any other pre-writing; I stuck with the game plan so I could get it accomplished.
B. Which prompt did you end up selecting? Did you consider any other options or change your mind during the drafting process?
I ended up choosing the second prompt. I also considered the first prompt but then decided against it. I thought about changing my mind when I began to write my essay, but I called my mom and she gave me some ideas to help me get started writing.
C. What difficulties did you experience trying to discover a single focus or reason for writing?
The main difficulty that I experienced was thinking of a select memory. That was the part that took me the longest to do.
D. What one or two (thesis) sentence(s) from your essay articulates your purpose for writing? (Write your thesis statement below.)
There is rarely a meal at my house that goes without laughter.
Since I was young, we always had pasta at least once a week.
E. What problems did you have trying to organize your essay? How did you overcome these difficulties?
The main problem I had with organizing my essay was the organization of some of the paragraphs. For the most part, I believe my essay is in order, but there is room for improvement.
F. If you were starting the assignment over from scratch, what would you do differently? What changes would you make to your writing /thinking process?
If I was to start over, the things I would do differently are as follows: call my mom before sitting there trying to write for an hour and getting nowhere, construct a better game plan, and thinking about all of the options for a longer time than what I did to better make a decision.
G. What do you like best about your essay?
The part of my essay that I like the most is the conclusion. Not because it is the end but because I think I did a relatively good job of wrapping my thoughts up.
H. What do you like least about your essay?
The part of my essay that I like the least is the body. I fell as if it does not flow that great and is kind of choppy. I need to work on the transitions from paragraph to paragraph.
