2. About My Project
• Narrative personal essays
• Spirituality/self-discovery
• Reflective
• Not meant to be offensive
3. Project Development
• Structure of Essays- Chronological vs.
Sacramental- a compromise
• Voice and Perspective- myself then vs. now
• Research Placement- what do I do with this
stuff I looked up?
4. Project Issues/Problems
• Memory- very good
at blocking
• Timeline- how many
essays and where?
• Offensive- Where is
that line based on
observation?
