In my life-choice memoir I used reflective writing and description. I watched the video on reflective writing to enhance my skills and to use less description which I hope to use in later drafts. My first draft contains several scenes, but I would like to include more for a better visual representation of my life choice. I am struggling with the concept of "show not tell" in my writing because I rather explain facts than write creatively. The video has given more insight of how to improve my narrative process as a writer.

My parents have always allowed me to make my own beliefs and never restricted me from becoming who I am. I am very similar to my father as we think similarly and tend to have the same views on certain topics. At a young age I lost my faith and realized that I do not believe in God or the Holy Bible. To my grandparents, this is immoral and basically grants me a one-way ticket to Hell. I do not attend church or receive communion out of respect for those who cherish their Catholic religion and not rebellion which they assume. I know this will prompt a difficult conversation when I get married because I do not want a ceremony in a church. I do have an open mind however and if I begin to believe again, I will embrace that. |
