Blog 15: Independent Component 2 Approval

1.  Describe in detail what you plan to do for your 30 hours.
I plan to take writing workshops on the genre of creative nonfiction and create a blog on Blogger where I will post writing pieces and prompts using the techniques that I've acquired through research. For instance, say I am focusing on the art of immersion. On my blog, I will post what that entitles exactly and an example of that technique from myself and another author, comparing the two. 

2.  Discuss how or what you will do to meet the expectation of showing 30 hours of evidence.
In order to show my 30 hours of evidence, I will post snapshots of my workshops, pictures of my research sources, as well as a link to my blogger blog. I will also allow my peers to comment on posted pieces with commendations and recommendations as well as suggestions for any topics they'd like me to look into or any writing styles they'd like me to attempt. (Examples include excerpts of the following: personal essays, memoirs, fiction pieces, articles, etc.)

3.  Explain how this component will help you explore your topic in more depth.
By practicing the variant techniques used in creative nonfiction as well as expanding my knowledge outside this specific domain, I will be able adapt as a writer by learning through practice. As a writer, you must evolve alongside your audience. One cannot simply focus on one key element, I must hone in on all aspects of the art in order to produce an adequate piece of prose that resonates with my readers. Therefore, I must be well-rounded in my craft. 

4.  Post a log in your Senior Project Hours link and label it "Independent Component 2" log.
