The blog post I chose to evaluate was my 'Introduction to my Independant Reading Book'. The reason I chose this post is because I believe that my voice is most presnt there. "With the cancer she has, relationships (after being anitsocial for almost 3
years), losing relationships with people because she got pulled out of school."(Miller). This shows my writers voice because of the parentthesis in the sentance. It shows that I am a relaxed writer who just wants to have a converstaion with the readers that I can't physically reach. With these added, it's like i'm injecting an extra note in the converstaion. " I think it is a very very good book to read and i'm only 91 pages in. "(Miller). This shows my voice coming through by having the sentance simply state what I think. I show how much I have already read of my book, which seems like a lot to some people. But in the sentance it's self it seems like I have bearly read anything. This showcases my personality by showing what and how I think. It shows my thinking process while i'm writting and reading. About what I think of the main character and of the book in general. Also it shows that I am a pretty much relaxed writer. I don't sit and think about each sentance for 3 hours, I think about the paragraph as a whole and just go from there.
In my posts I generaly use low and informal diction. It shows that i'm laid back and I want my readers to understand what I am trying to put in to the blog post. " I like how the author has the main character very real and close to what a
teenager would actually think, and feel, and act."(Miller). Here it shows very casual diction. I'm just stating what I feel about the author and not trying to sugar-coat it or use complicated words to make my self look smart. The sentance length I chose was medium to long for most of my blog posts. This enhances my writers voice because it allows me space to put what I really feel and think. "And the movie version is coming out this summer and 2 actors from Divergent,
which I love, play the 2 main characters in "The Fault In Our Stars". So
naturally I really want to go see the movie."(Miller). See how the sentances aren't so long that I lose the reader, but they are just long enough for me to put my true thoughts in it, as you can see.
