I thought this reading was very helpful because I have never thought to do a lot of these things. For example, I have never tried free writing to figure out which topic I would write a paper on, and this concept seems very helpful. Also, I typically keep my writing to myself, but talking about your ideas for topics to people will help decide what is best to write about. One of the bigger concepts this writing talked about when discussing brainstorming is mind mapping. For me, I do not think I would use this concept, only because I would rather see an organized list compared to a map. The reading also discussed exploring topics through preliminary research. I agree that it is extremely helpful to know conflicting views on your topic, and to know what others say about it.

  1. I agree with your statement on mind mapping. I wouldn't prefer to use that tactic for brainstorming and, like you said, would rather make an organized list.

Action Plan

For my action plan I will add more pictures to my website and continue to expand on my topic. I also plan to make posters to place around campus to reach outside audiences and use that as my nondigital source. I will continue to work over the weekend to finish the project and best carry out my message on my website.

1) In project two I first did a lot of research to gather ideas and topics that I wanted to include in my essay. Then I went through and proofed it while adding citations and formatting everything. I did ended up doing three drafts rather than two. Project one was a little easier to write in my opinion because it was based off of our observations rather than facts and statistics. 2) I liked taking my first draft and transforming it into a final draft. This is where I organized all my thoughts and made the paper flow nicely. Once I have all my ideas out on the paper I can easily reorganize, cut and add new things. 3) I enjoyed project one more. I think it was lighter in the sense that it was more fun to write about. I liked exploring the different kinds of social adaptions in the films while also comparing time eras.
Jamica Williams What are some subversion examples the author mentions? A few books the the author mentions It's just a plant, Heather has two Mommies, and Gloria Goes Gay Can you think of other 2 books or movies that are subversion? Scary movie 1 and 2 Why are they subversion? Scary movie is subversive because it takes into account the the rhetorical factors in most scary movies and joke on them. Its more of a comedy than a "scary" movie. Each of the characters do exactly whats expected. They run the opposite way like up the stairs, trip and fall multiple times, and even live with the ghost that is haunting them. What do you think "GO THE FUCK TO SLEEP?" Who should be the target audience for this book? The audience of this book is any adult/parent. Because its probably R-Rated its targeted to older people, and anyone can find this humorous.
