• What moment of insight or revelation does the character have in this story? Do the scenes that precede it prepare readers to understand that moment of insight?
    • Narrow down to one moment of insight/revelation.
      • Currently have two different moments, try to identify one and expand on it rather than having two that don’t go into enough detail.
    • Elaborate more on the moment
      • What was it like?
      • What happened?
      • Did I see it coming?
  • What parts of the story could use more detail or development?
    • Add more detail about reading to my family.
      • How long did I have to read to my family?
      • How long did the reading go on for?
      • Was it just one book or did I have to read multiple books to my family?
      • How did my skill change as I continued to read?
      • What was I like after I finished the book?
        • Compare it to what I was like when I first started.
  • How well does the ending work to connect the story to the writer’s present self?
    • Too short
    • Need to add more detail/an actual idea of what I’m like now
      • Talk about how I still hate reading, but I’ve made lots of improvements on my reading, i.e.;
        • Able to read aloud and feel confident in my reading
        • No longer afraid of not knowing words
        • Etc.
          • REMEMBER TO COMPARE IT TO HOW I WAS BEFORE!!!
