Honestly, this writing assignment is very tough for me. I still have not fully gotten the full idea of the assignment and how to make the two pieces speak. After sharing some thoughts with some classmates in the library today, it gave me a much better idea of what to. I’ve spent some considerable amount of time with my sources and trying to get my thoughts down on the zero draft. I actually did make an outline and it sort of organizes my thoughts which is always a good idea. I’ve started to get an idea of the rhetoric that the writers try to impose and analyze their thoughts. For the assignment, I am learning more toward the idea that it is focused on how the writers display their thoughts through these articles. I just thought it would be really hard to write so much on it but I realized I could utilize the Aristotlean ideas of ethos,pathos, and logos. etc.
