When I originally started to think about what to do for me re-genre assignment, I was a little nervous. I didn't know what previous assignment to do and what genre to pick. I finally decided on my personal essay and to do a podcast. Once I started working on my script for the podcast, it came so easily! I was quite surprised how quickly my ideas flowed. I'm approaching the podcast as if I was just talking to a group of people, like any other conversation I might have about the topic to my friends. I think that the podcast genre is much less formal than the regular writing I originally did and that made it easier to write. I'm actually excited about doing this project (probably because I feel like it's easy). My plan is to finish my portfolio during Thanksgiving break so that when I come back I have at least one less thing to worry about.
