Reflection

1. What elements of quality are present in this piece? How did you achieve them? How do they add to the effectiveness of the work?

For this short essay, I paid particular attention to the word choice. Since it was a somewhat long piece of writing, I wanted to keep it interesting and not reuse the same old words. Instead of using the same words, I would use different ones. If I couldn't think of any other good replacement words, then I would go to the visual thesaurus and use that to find a reasonable word.

2,How did you complete this piece of work? What was the assignment? What did you want to create? What were the steps you took to complete it? And did it come out the way you intended?

The assignment was to write a short story about some memorable moment in my life. I chose to write about my experience on a vacation to France. I wanted to write it in a sort of diary like form. In the end, I think that it came out to be more like someone just recounting things of the past. It doesn't seem very interesting. It didn't come out as I had intended, in diary form, but it did prove to be a useful piece of writing for anyone who might be interested in visisting France.
