Anyone wanna edit my rough draft of my first literary analysis?
You should attach it so that we can :)
Just wanted to know I had willing participants first.
In the works, anything specific you are concerned with?
I have never done literary analysis before, Not sure I'm on the right track. I also would like to have the reader start to like Emily a little or at least sympathize enough to not dislike her.
I chose this short story to write on for 2 reasons, 1) I doubt anyone else will choose it and 2) My instructor doesn't like Emily at all, I want to give her a new opinion of Emily.
I know it needs fine tuning,it was a 20 minute first attempt because I have to have something on paper tomorrow
Could you link the short story, perhaps? If possible.

Also, I know my conclusion is very weak...
university?
tech college
Why doesn't your instructor like Emily
I think because she killed Homer
Ok, I'm gonna edit, make notes of the edits, and send it back. I'm going to assume you are using MLA format from the way the heading is. If not, just conform it to the style you need. You can check all about MLA format here: http://owl.english.purdue.edu/owl/resource/747/01/
and she thinks Emily is a snob
Emily is a snob. Homer wasn't that interesting really, haha. But yes she is crazy, and that is sad. I agree with you.
I just stuck Title Here to shoe the space taken. She isnt to concerned with anything except the writing itself.
I didn't care much for the whole story, just wanted to stick out so I picked it.
She doesn't care how the page is setup or spaced then?
Did you like her at all or sympathize with her?
Nope

Rats
Thank you so much for all your time!
Rats? If you have to go it'll be here when you get back :)
Oh and yes I did sympathize with her. She was definitely a snob, though :)
Rats=Damnit lol
I'm aware, lol. What did you say that about?
Because you didnt like Emily
You know, I'm in a very deep state of suspense here.. lol
