ESSAY AND RUBRIC ARE LINKED THESE ARE SIDE NOTES….. I wrote this essay before my professor told me that it can’t be a narrative. (that is my main problem) You can use the narrative (mini) stories I gave you as a reference to explain a conceptual idea related to my relationship between me and my shoes. The conceptual idea should resonate with the reader, like a life analogy. The main theme that I am trying to display in this essay is how my particular shoes in each mini story act as a bookmark in life.(how my shoes reflected how i was as a person)
