The Tale of the Typical Teenager

Two things I did well:

1. I think that I stepped out of my comfort zone a lot in telling this story. Specifically with the amount of detail I went into.

2. I used a lot of poetic devices that, one year ago, I would have never thought of using. For example: I used devices such as alliteration, the rule of three, short sentences for dramatic affect, repetition and imagery.

Two things I could have improved/done better:

1. I could have emphasized the message of the story much stronger then I did. I didn’t keep in mind the message the whole time I was writing that so I will do that next time.

2. My ending was kind of rushed and it came to a stop sort of suddenly. I could have started to end it earlier so that it wouldn’t be so sudden.
