The stained wedding dress.

I wrote my personal narrative about the recent flooding in Baton Rouge, and how the natural disaster affected me. I wrote about the emotional process of the whole thing and I also wrote about the clean- up the process. I included my mom's wedding dress into the story to make it more interesting and to bring a different kind of meaning to it. I had a lot of fun with using vivid details and using my voice to bring the readers into my story.
  As I read my story out loud to myself, I could really hear my personality and emotions throughout the whole thing. I had to add more to each part, and I had to take a few things out. But overall, It was like an art project for me, Designing and creating a piece of writing that has just the right amount of everything, and is creative. I am anxious to see what readers think of it and if it will be a powerful piece of writing.
