I would really like to explore more about life stories, or non-fiction pieces. I think that after listening to Marni Gillards' presentation, I really liked how real and lively her stories were. I'm not much into writing poetry, and rambling on about flowers and life. I would rather tell my life, and explain my own stories through my own mind and writing capabilities. I feel like writing real life stories comes much more natural than writing fiction. After Gillards' presentation, I now felt like I was very confident about the topic Alaynah and I chose. I chose a book that taught and explained how you should write your life story. This book did explian very helpful techniques that I will now be able to use in my writing. Not to sound rude, but I really didnt connect with the first 3 presenters. Maybe this was because they wrote poetry or fiction. After Gillard, I really loved her story telling, and how she was so lively with her emotions about HER stories that were represented. I felt like I could now write about an occurance in my life, and correctly use writing techniques to persue my idea. So concluding, I would really like to explore more on writing life stories. I like how this would able me to write about MY life and MY stories, with no restrictions.
