One of the key notes I enjoyed about the writing is how descriptive it is. Every little detail in her story tells you how specifically, so it makes it easy to create an imagine in my head. For example ” She kept her head tipped down so that her long dark hair fell over her face to hide the fact that part of her lower jaw was missing. In my mind I can already visual what she looks like and add color into my thoughts. One of my questions I have is why end the sentence with the line ” She was shouting but her voice was smaller than the tiny frame it came from. It was no more than a whisper once it passed the third row.” What does the third row mean and why does it mention as an closing sentence? She also says ” When I dream of fire, ” she read ” you’re still the one I’d save/ though I’ve come to think of myself/ as the flames, the splintering rafters.” I think the line melted my heart but to be quite honest, does it mean it’s her fault or the fact that she’s been in so much pains she would still save her?

Office Hours: Tuesdays and Thursdays, 11:30 AM – 1 PM. I’ll be available through Zoom and will send an invitation via email that you should keep all semester. Try to join my meeting at the start of the hour, not at the end—since I may be talking to other students or have another appointment after the hour is up. If those times don’t work with your schedule, we can schedule a different time. This means you’ll have to schedule an appointment in advance via email. I suggest you have multiple times in mind, since your schedule may not mesh with mine!
