Kaylyn Parson's Blogs:

Kaylyn's blogs were very intriguing. I have to say she is talented for all that hard work she put in her writing! Great job! I got to learn more about Kaylyn and her writing style. She approaches topics by choosing very ordinary topics and making them interesting to read. The titles of the posts are clever and they go well with the writing. I think she did a great job of getting her point across.

I like how she writes in a honest manner by simply putting her feelings in the posts at the time of the events. I believe her writing style is interesting and she cleverly introduces us to her personal thoughts and opinions on different matters of life. I believe that I will truly enjoy reading her future posts because her style of writing is one of a kind.

A few of my favorites:
In "A Struggle to Continue," Kaylyn does a great job of giving us a great sense of the struggle she writes about. I think it was really clever writing about a ship that is lost at sea (I hope I am right), yet doesn't say it outright. She uses great word choice, so the audience can understand the situation clearly. I think that this is a great blog to start reading from her collection. It only makes me want to read more of what she has to offer. It gives me a great idea of how creative she can get with writing. This was a great article.

In "Appreciating the Craft," I learned about Kaylyn's appreciation for other authors' writing. Through her writing, we learn how she approaches the different styles of writing and what she picks up from it. Her reviews on both essays that she chose are detailed and give us a clear idea on what these essays might be about.
Kaylyn really proves her appreciation toward these crafts by simply saying it and showing it by picking a few things that she found to interesting to her. She did a great job concluding her observation by encouraging readers to "stop and look." It is an act of motivating people to read and understand the art and the process as well.

In "Death in Nature," I was amused by the simple fact that she described the life of a fly. She brought out things that never crossed my mind. It was really interesting to read about a fly and yet learn so much about the author's imagination. She writes what she sees and thinks in a very unique manner.

Michelle Nulliner's Blogs:

Michelle's blogs were really interesting to read. I absolutely loved the simplicity of the matters, and how she takes these simple matters and intertwines them with her strong writing skills to captivate our interest even deeper. She does a great job of providing the readers what they want to learn about her and her writing abilities.

I believe that she can gets her point across and provides the necessary detail to further entertain or inform her audience. Michelle's writing style is intriguing because it encompasses talented writing skills, detailed imagination, and creativity.

My favorites:
In "Five Minutes of My Day," Michelle cleverly gives a great picture of how five minutes of one's time can consume so much more than we think it can. I enjoyed how she incorporates her endeavors and goals as well as her worries in a blog that is only supposed to be on the short five minutes of one's life.

In "Feminism," I found the light humor and the strength that Michelle possesses. I like how shes uses one event in her life that allows us to see one strong opinion that she has on certain situations. I like how she begins it and ends with the light humor and a sense of pride when she chooses to do as she please.

In "Hermit Crab," Michelle gives a great example of this type of essay. One thing that I would have recommended is a better title. Besides that, she did a great job of giving readers a great list of how to be successful. I like how she lists the three main points in her essay as separate paragraphs. Separating them like that offers emphasis on those points and grabs readers attention. It also warns readers that those are the main points that will be discussed.
