Hi Whitney!
ReplyDeleteGreat job on your blog theme. I like the rain drops because it makes your blog seem very relaxing. It is fun to see all the different styles people have chosen to represent themselves. I also like your introduction to your portfolio. I like blogs that have a little information on what your goal is for the portfolio.
One suggestion I might have is to add more pictures to your portfolio introduction post. This way the person viewing your portfolio has an even better preview of the story that they want to read. They say that a picture is worth a thousand words so it is an easy way to add a lot of depth to your blog in general. Great job overall though.
I hope you had a good Spring Break.
I look forward to reading more from your blog and seeing your portfolio grow!

Whitney,
ReplyDeleteI thought you did an excellent job on the story. I’m glad you included the author’s note at the beginning and the end. It was very detailed and flowed right into the beginning of your story. The ending caught me by surprise. I thought Gobby had been reformed. I certainly didn’t expect the father to cut his head off. You did a good job picking out the images. I guess that was a photo of the trio during the good times! Thanks for the link to the The Giant Crab, and Other Tales from Old India. I will have to take a look at some of this author’s other works in the future.
I would also like to comment on your overall look of your blog. The weather widget is pretty cool. I also chose your blog for my free choice. You have quite a few stories in your portfolio. The intro page was laid out great and made it easy for me to chose a story. I look forward to reading more of your work this semester.
