Rhizome Post #1 | Anthony Luciani

In Sierra's Stranger Than Wal-Mart: Moments assignment she first mentions a flag waving in the wind. Then she mentions the event that was seen near the fountain outside the classroom window and finally she talks about a gymnast finnishing her routine.

When I read the post I felt happy because these were good things to think about. Whether the girl near the fountain wanted outside attention or not she was there to make people laugh. The flag waving in the wind was a good thing because it made me feel patriotic despite the fact that there are things that are wrong with our country and the moment with the gymnast was good because she must have felt relieved after preforming her routine.

When I write I want people to feel all sorts of things. Happy and relieved that everything turned out all right. Terrified or angry at the evil things that the antagonist did. I'd also like it if I could even put a litttle humanity in my characters so that my readers will feel sorry for them and their situations.
