In the third writing project, I worked with 10 different quotes from six different works. I used most of these quotes to set up the context for the rest of the paper. To explain what a hero and victim narrative were and to display scholar’s arguments about literacy narratives.  Here I set up Kara Alexander’s perspective on child prodigy narratives. “These students have ‘portrayed themselves as child prodigies, they [have] conceived of themselves and their literacy abilities as exceptional or highlighting moments when their literacy skills were put on display to amaze and astonish their audience’ (Alexander 619).” Then later in the paragraph, I apply a literacy narrative that I think fits within the prodigy requirements. “‘To say I was hooked was an understatement. Every day, I was excited to get back to school so I could write a new story in Miss. Foster’s class’ (Michaud). In this narrative, Michaud develops a positive story where his literacy skill blooms even as he continues through the education system”. Looking into the future I want to be able to effectively provide variety in terms of how I bring quotes into my thoughts. Right now I use a lot of signal phrasing and not a lot of embedded quotes. I think that by allowing for variety, my papers could become more interesting to read.
