For my life choice memoir I chose to write about a struggle i had with my mother through my teenage years. My rhetorical mode would be narration as i chose to tell this story from my point of view, the genre would be memoir of course.i had a hard time deciding on what to write about for his project but when we were told we could write about very personal experiences this conflict i always had with my mother came to mind. My writing process i would say is very open ended i prefer to write things down in a journal over typing something up. To me it just has a more personal feel to it. Plus, carry my journal with me everywhere so if something comes to mind I can quickly jot something down and add to my story. I wrote my first draft throughout a week. I have a hard time sitting still for long periods of time so i would often get up and go for a walk or play some video games into working on it. Writing this wasn't s difficult for me mostly because i had all my thoughts written down ahead of time an it was only a matter of piecing things together from my notebook. Once i go back to do a second draft i definitely want to work on the sequencing of my events in my story while rereading it i noticed i jumped back and forth between different events so that's one thing ill work on. I also have a hard time with quotes. Overall i thing this was a good start with plenty of room for improvent.

I had a hard time picking a topic too! I wasn't sure was life-choice of mine was "serious."

I think everyone should be free to express themselves no matter what, looking forward to your next draft.
