week 4


Setting—where it all takes place. Following an exciting topic like theme, setting seems a little duller,but it’s important, especially in historical fiction. A writer using slang that is archaic in regards to the setting can confuse the reader and discredit its believability. This week we also wrote the “paper 1.” I wrote about a person who influenced me to pick my fields of study. It was my mom. I talked about her intense vigor for words and learning, and how it influenced me to pick a minor in English.

  1. Hmmm never thought about it that way...setting as a boring topic. I can get lost in the setting of a story.
