Amber Reeves: Saunder's Talk and DFW

I really focused on the aspect of Saunder's putting things into human connection. He stated that if we relate the issue to the population or connect it to human concern, people will rise to the situation. In DFW's text, the event of 9/11 was something that connected personally to everyone. He described the events that were happening and talked about flags representing the tragedy. Human connection in stories motivates me to continue reading, because I feel as if personal connection makes a story more interesting and easier to read. I am going to include personal connection in my writings in hope that my readers will feel as if we can understand each other.
