Dominique Wellman-Salisbury Professor English 101 10844 7 June 2024 Seeing Myself Through Words In normal circumstances a reflection is seen through a mirror‚ other times it is seen through literature. Stories can be told through how a text is written‚ who the audience is‚ and who the author is as a writer.

Discovery Creative He sat lazily on the cold ceramic tiles of his bedroom‚ resting his back against the rigid wooden framework of his single bed. With legs outstretched‚ chest gently dipping up and down and his forehead submissively being supported by his fingertips‚ Jonas Schmidt reminisced upon the caring and affectionate figure of his father.
