In the “Editor” the compelling suspense of the story made me want to keep listening. Throughout the podcast I didn’t exactly know the final outcome which kept me at the edge of my seat. The detailed description of the setting every time it changed allowed for me to imagine where the story was taking place in my mind. The details allowed for the listener to be a part of the story in their own way. Throughout the podcast the development of the main character was executed perfectly. There was a very distinct difference between the main character from the beginning to the end of the story. The relationship between Robin Woods and the editor developed throughout the podcast and eventually led up to the two “pen pals” finally getting the change to meet in person. The conflict in the narrative was unusual to that of a normal everyday conflict however, it gave the story a more appealing sense. It allowed for imagination because not everyone listening to the podcast has been to prison before. The story is very inspiring, which made me more interested in continuing to listen to the podcast.

Hi, Emily,
You have identified some important elements to good story-telling. As you draft your literacy analysis, consider the way you will interest the reader and craft the narrative portion of the essay. What role does setting play in your literacy (if any)? Did you have an important relationship with someone who inspired you to keep building your skills as Woods did with Stevens? In what ways might your literacy narrative be similar to Woods, even if it is significantly different in other ways? Consider these questions as you draft. I look forward to learning more about your experience.
Hello Professor Gennaco,
The setting will definitely be important to my narrative. Along with the setting my relationship with writing has been greatly impacted by my junior year english teacher. In my narrative I plan of discussing how he provided me with encouragement and gave me tools to improve my writing skills.
Thank You,
Emily Wnek
