- The University of Yellow Wallpaper (Caroline E. White)
- The Body (Shelley Jackson)
Now that you have recorded your personal feelings, move beyond "I liked it" or "I was bored," and focus instead on the texts themselves. What do these texts illustrate about electronic writing, that the more business-focused approach of Kilian's book does not cover? How do these authors use the digital medium, in order to achieve an effect that would be difficult or impossible in print?
Scan this handout on "Close Reading" for tips on moving beyond personal reflection and summary, towards an intellectual analysis of the text itself.

Fun game attached in University response!

The body. Not quite as good as the wallpaper analysis, though I actually enjoyed this one better. So read that instead.
