I chose Sample Literacy Narrative 2.
The focus of the introduction: The author not seeing herself as a writer.
Features 1. can write well enough to earn A's on papers
2. development in literacy was a process of bouncing off different cultural stories to become a writer
3. started relationship with writing by reading (beginning of becoming a writer)
4. family visited he library weekly (persistent with study)
5. sisters, parents and friends had indirect and direct influence on her reading (influences helped with reading
6. gained valuable experience through her sisters (positive/negative experience? or both?)
7. believes imagined stories are just as valid as written ones (connection to literacy)
8. enjoyed playtime with sisters but did not think of herself as a writer
9. didn't believe she could record he own stories (have to do with low self-esteem?)
10. believed if she claimed that she was a good writer, she would take what belonged to her older sister
11. saw writing as a tool for academic work (writing is necessary)
12. interested in Role play Gaming but it prevented her from recognizing it as a legitimate form of writing
13. says she had no talent at writing
14. sister encouraged her and begin to see herself as an author
Ending Question: Why did it take so long for the author to see herself as a writer?
