He starts first by saying that yes, even though it is reality T.V., there are still writers, directors, and the same groups of people as in a sitcom or other T.V. show. He also begins to tell his readers about how hard the work is and the amount of time put into the reality show. But it’s believed that he gives so much information not to primarily tell the reader what his job in taills, but to tell his readers the importance of thinking his life out. The title of this story is, “Of Losers and Moles: You Think Reality T.V.
The first essay written by Jaschik meets the criteria for literary nonfiction because it discusses the huge controversy of plagiarism and how it affects literature today. Mr. Murray explains how we need to be critical readers. Ondaatje's essay is creative and uses figurative language to give us a "sense of place" and a "sense of
Through a close study of the narrative structure, relationships and detective fiction the reader will gain a better understanding of the distinctive elements of this novel. In the book “Curious” Mark Haddon has used an interesting narrative structure to convey the effects of Christopher Boone as the distinctive narrator. A distinctive feature we see in “Curious” is the use of Narrative Digressions. Haddon has structured this novel so that about every second chapter we see a Narrative digression which throws the story into pause and in these narrative digressions he goes into unneeded subjects such as Christopher listing all of his behavioural problems Christopher says “I used to think mother and father would get divorced” this digression had followed Ed Boone stating that he wanted to leave Swindon and live somewhere else. Christopher stating all these behavioural problems shows us his thought pattern.
2. The way the beginning resemble a scene from a novel is how he described everything that happened and how it did with details to describe the memory. The mood Staples set is worried or scared by using the words discreet, menacingly, worried and uninflammatory. 3. The sentence is a effective follow-up to the opening paragraph because it makes the reader want to know what has happened since then and the reason why it had happened.
2. When fiction authors write a book it is sometimes mistakenly thought that the author is revealing something about themselves in their writing. This is not always true. The ease of writing about one’s own life is an easy path to follow, because writers are first taught to write about what they know. This should not be a reflection of the fiction or non-fiction being told, it should merely be based upon the conviction of the story and the readers ability to connect to it.
Form- The novel takes the form of a metafiction narrative as the narrator is aware he is writing a novel. This is shown throughout the novel and is shown in chapter 1 says ‘only Gatsby the man who gave his name to this book’ showing that Nick is aware he is writing a novel which may create the effect of showing that Nick controls how the events of the story are told and so may not be an objective narrator as his opinion could have been blurred by the narrator’s opinion of the events. Characterisation- In chapter 1 we are introduced to many of the novel’s central characters. The first character we are introduced to is the novel’s first person intradigetic, retrospective narrator, Nick. Nick is first characterised as a trustworthy narrator as he says he is ‘inclined to reserve all judgements’ however the reader has to quickly judge whether this is true as Nick says Gatsby ‘represented everything for which I have an unaffected scorn’ this signals to the reader that Nick may not be a reliable narrator as the reader will have to piece together some of the narrative for themselves as Nick may be
John Steinbeck uses literary elements throughout his novel to bring the book to life. He uses characterization, foreshadow, conflict and more. John Steinbeck characterizes the two main characters, George and Lennie, well throughout the story. In the novel Lennie is not as well educated as George.

Well, let me set you all straight: not every Chick Lit book is a winner; some of them really are boring, predictable and just a plain waste of time! However, some earlier novels are exciting, light and frankly a breath of fresh air for anyone who wants escapism with a practical sense of reality. And as the genre evolves, the standard of writing has too. Writers such as Lindsey Kelk and Scarlett Bailey stride ahead with novels that are glamorous but realistic and genuinely get their audience excited about what they are reading. Sub-genres such as; “Marriage Lit” and “Christian Lit” have started springing up across the literary
Unit one also taught me to reevaluate how important certain priorities when it came to writing. I learned from the other unit one authors, Joseph M. Williams and James E. Porter, that when an essay is read by someone who is looking for grammatical error or plagiarism instead of content, they will often find the error and ignore the content. Although I do still know the importance of grammar and originality, this class and the grading style has let me put those constructs in the back seat until the editing process, instead of making them something I had to constantly worry about. I don’t believe that good writing revolves around grammar, but rather how well your words can convey a message to the intended audiences.
Garrett McCloud Writing and Composition II Professor Dilkes Me as a Reader and writer My experience as a reader and a writer is very interesting. A lot of the times when I write I usually have a very good understanding of what I read and write but sometimes I rush and do not go over what I write. As a reader I would take the insight of the author writings and then try to incorporate or compare it to my life to see how I can relate to it. Try to put it in my on perspective in order to have an idea of what theme should be for that paper. Learning about how the theme of your paper should be related back to in every paragraph is important to the flow of the paper.
