How will you apply West's essay to your essay?

From what i have read from West's article, the author uses several tools to analyze a blog. For example, a table that labels the elements of the literary devices that can be defining a writer's identity. Cathleen uses the tables to clearly label out the characteristics in a person's writing and rationally relate them to one identity. My essay will be using the second topic choice, "Apply West’s framework to examine any blog of your choice to make an argument about how identity is expressed online".  I will be analyzing other's essay, put them in a form of table and relating the elements. Separating the topics that will help me organize the subjects, and explaining how this would answer my question.

  1. You have a good plan for your essay it seems like. You and Paige had the same idea using the chart in your essay and I really like that. I think it will really help you analyze your blogs a lot better. I will probably end up using that now haha.
