Week 8: Comments and Feedback

-

 Overall, I've received high-quality feedback from my peers. These comments help me focus in on details that were appreciated by readers, and the critiques allow me to improve my writing and be conscious of any potential mistakes I may make when telling another story. The feedback also inspires me to be more creative and re-read over my work. By reviewing over what I've read and considering previous comments, I've been able to improve my style of writing. I believe I've given good feedback to my peers as well. I aim to be specific with what I like and offer ideas to take the next stories in different creative directions. As I analyze other people's writings, I get new ideas on how I can re-tell a story and what things I should try. The blog comments on introductory pages make it easy and convenient to learn more about my peers and connect with others. Looking forward, I don't plan on changing any specifics with my comment wall or comment style.

Introduction to Ish

  Hey everybody! My name’s Ishan, but I go by Ish, like fish without the f. I’m a sophomore and I’m majoring in both Biology and Letters with a Pre-Med track. I hope to practice medicine, but I’m still unsure of the specialty I want to work in. I’ve been fascinated with neurosurgery, but the extensive schooling and long, risky procedures made the field less appealing. I recently read Do No Harm by Dr. Henry Marsh, one of the world’s best neurosurgeons, and the various stories demonstrated the difficult lifestyle of a neurosurgeon. As a result, I’d be more interested in a neurosurgical specialization of a field I found appealing, such as a neuro-ophthalmology, but I’m open to all options.   I was born in Frankfort, Indiana; it’s an extremely small town relatively close to Indianapolis. My family and I moved to St. Joseph, Missouri when I began preschool, before moving to Terre Haute, Indiana when I began 3 rd grade. We then moved to Edmond, Oklahoma when I began

Week 3 Story: Hanu the Dog

There was once a teenage boy named Varun, and it was rumored that he ran faster than the wind. An expert sprinter, Varun told all that his speed was due to his loyal German Shepherd, Hanu. As a young boy, Varun adopted Hanu when he was a puppy. Both Varun and Hanu were inseparable; whether it’s playing fetch or taking a walk, Varun always spent his time taking care of Hanu. As they grew older, they fell in love with racing, and the duo would run across the winding roads. Their sprints were a sight to behold, with the whole town holding their breath in anticipation to see who won the race.   One day, Hanu woke up with a hunger to run like no other; he was pacing around the house and could barely contain his excitement. He roamed around the town searching for Varun. When he finally found him, Hanu barked and begged to race, and his excitement was infectious. After what felt like hours of whining, Varun said,   “You want to race, boy? Let’s go for a quick run. We’ll make this one
