Groupie Readings: Jessica

Jessica has an amazing talent for writing. I will go ahead and say that she is one of the best I have been partnered with in this class. My top three "Greatest Hits" would definitely be "Scarified," "Translations" and "The View." Scarified made me laugh. The easy flow of dialogue from the teacher to the students felt natural. The interrupted thoughts by the narrator had a distinctive voice, one the reader grows to love. "Translations" was genius. She has a great understanding of human relationships and the way we talk in them. Again its has a very easy flow because the structure is well established. "The View" was beautiful and thought provoking. The descriptions were perfect and made for easy imaginings.

Her strength is in her voice. Her characters have well developed personalities and Jessica has a way of writing so we all understand but think "what a cool way to say it." One thing that could use some improvement were small errors that were probably neglected in the editing stages: misspelled word, run-on sentence etc. There were remarkably few. Great blog!
