For unit 3 I will be doing a comic. I started looking at websites to begin illustrating my story such as ,MakeBeliefsComix.com., Pixton, and Write Comics. I will be talking about what I learned about myself during quarantine. being stuck in the house is #1 and I hated it.

The mentor text I used was “Annotated by the Author : ‘10 Comic Books to Celebrate Pride’ by the New York Times. Here the author narrates how George Gene Gustines pick a selection of 10 comics that star L.G.B.T.Q. characters. He mentioned that every writing aspect is important such as tone, mood, wording, language, structure.

The tone when writing this was of Gustines it can be seen as meticulous he had to cover many important details when writing this without spoiling anything. However at the same time making sure  the information was accurate and clear.

The author includes in the beginning was explaining  a little of the background what George Gene Gustines was meant to do. A summary of what the article will be about.The middle part where of comments of Mr. Gustines’s based on the original article. In the end he wanted to discuss with editors and look at other articles in The Times to see how similar content is handled with film, television and prose books. This was an edition to celebrate  Pride Month. I think it was  organized this way so we can have a format that will be easy to follow rather than difficult to understand. The author used some other techniques to draw in the audiences attention such as where some words in bold, images and hyperlinks intact. The color as well, the graphics being layout in the article.

The methods used to develop its ideas is narration of Gustine work, description of what’s in bold, comparison to our century and the L.G.B.T.Q.

This writer used research when talking of the other authors work, what they have done, and why.
