Topic Brainstorm

I am interested in the topic on comparing and contrasting elements of two different texts. I would like to explore the similarities and differences between two characters or examine how one theme is handled in similar and dissimilar ways in two different texts. I think this will be fun to do because I think even though I can be writing about two characters from two different texts, these characters can have a lot of similarities. This is a writing I can see myself enjoying and being able to do. The previous knowledge I have on this is that I have use metaphors in writings before. I think metaphors are basically comparing. Through this writing I would like to focus and analyze what two characters have in common. I would like to brush up on my comparing skills. The strengths I can bring to this topic is to find many comparisons between two texts.


I am also interested in the topic on writing on a female character from a fiction story. This topic interests me because I am a female and I would like to learn things about another female. I may find we have similarities or maybe more differences. The previous knowledge I have on writing on female was writing on the character Katniss Everdeen from the book The Hunger Games. From this topic I would like to learn from this topic is maybe on how different a female was in a different time. The strengths I can bring to this writing would be to write about my personal opinions on this particular female.

The next topic I am interested in is to write about the cultural behavior in a specific time and place. I would like to write about this so I can learn about a different culture. So, I can learn something new. I do not recall having any previous knowledge on writing on this topic. The strengths I can bring to this assignment are my curiosity to learn about a different culture.

Finally, the fourth topic I am interested in is on writing on how a setting influences character development. This topic interest me because it will help me to analyze a story. I think I may have had experience in writing about a novel's setting when I wrote about The Hunger Games. It has been a while since I have written that, so I vaguely remember. I would like to learn on that topic specifically, on how the setting influences character development. The strengths I can bring to this topic is that I am a very observant person and I think this will help me write on this topic. I will be able to pay attention to the setting and on how the setting connects to the character.
