Reflection on workshop notes

Thanks to the writing workshop, I was able to gather a somewhat decent amount of feedback on my rough draft.

I’ve come to understand that, given my topic, I’ll have to resort to using more…simple language, when addressing my audience. If someone reading lacks a proper grasp of English and only sees big words, they might get offended if those words have to be explained. Another thing I realized was that the Mona Lisa is way too complicated to use as an example. Sure, people “know” of it, but not many know of it. It’s more irritating the realize that I had to explain the mystery around it and get met with “people know the Mona Lisa, just say that and move on” when that’s not the point.

Ironic, isn’t it? That a letter about not missing the point my misinterpreting the meanings within art has the point missed due to a misunderstanding?

Well, either way, I’ve shortened up my random history lessons, moved around the concession to place it before the meat of the letter, and kept it just under 800 words.

Overall, the workshop wasn’t too useful, but that could just be because of the type of writing I had to do.
