Review of Literacy Narrative

If I could change anything about my most recent paper, I would choose to change my writing outline. I feel that since I chose to write my paper under the topic of "My Momentous Writings," it is going to make the grading a bit harsher. However, I felt very inclined to write in this manner because it is easier for me to write about major points rather than all of my readings as a whole because the major points are my inspirations, and I can write on and on about them. I would also change the fact that I began the Literacy Narrative's opening body paragraph with a short story about my childhood. I could have just taken that out, but I left it because I imagined that it would grab the reader's attention and keep them reading. Since I did a short story for that paragraph, I feel that maybe I should have done the same thing to my other paragraphs to make the paper more entertaining to read. I should have included my readings even before I started school, because that is my origin of reading. Dr. Seuss was and is and will always be my greatest motivation because of his unhindered imagination. I feel that if I included my Dr. Seuss readings, my paper would have been much longer and would hold a more exciting yet meaningful beginning to my Literacy Narrative. The final thing I would change about my narrative that I would have changed would have been to change Romeo and Juliet with The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn. That book has to be one of the most different books I have ever read. On the one hand, the book is very hard to read and understand completely. On the other hand, the book is written in a different style than most because of the use of "down south" language of the 1800's. All-in-all, the Literacy Narrative brought back many great memories, and made me appreciate reading more. There are a lot of changes I could have made to my writing, but I could not think of how I could better write it at the time.
