Profile Help Based on Readings
I think that my profile is going to fall under the category of being chronological. This style makes the most sense to me. In telling an event in someone's life, chronological order is my natural way of telling the story. So the section about the different styles was more helpful for me. Also the section of reading focusing on dialogue was very helpful from the readings. I feel like in a profile dialogue is very important. I want to incorporate as much dialogue as possible so that the readers can hear the person's voice that I am writing about. This is very important to me. I feel like when I read a profile I want to hear the person's voice and imagine their personality based on a few sentences that they say. I want to try to use as many direct quotes as possible.

I agree and I think chronological is the style that works best for my paper as well. My subject is an immigrant from Italy and I tried to not only focus on why he chose to come to the United States, but also some differences and similarities between his life here and there, I think doing that chronologically makes the most sense. Like I said in my blog post, my roough draft is very rough. I am not liking the style I wrote it in at all, but I am looking forward to getting some feedback on how I can reconstruct it to my liking. -Katelyn Fitzsimmons
