I read Katrina’s post and found what she wrote was interesting. This is because she wrote about things that I didn’t mention. In my post, I mentioned how I felt and what I learned through reading Russel Baker’s and Mary Sherry’s stories. In contrast, Katrina analyzed both essays and their effectiveness on their readers. Both essays aim to inform their readers about the importance of writing what you wish but in different ways. Katrina also agreed to the idea that both essays aim to inform this message but Katrina specify that  Baker used ethos while Sherry used autobiography and credibility in her essay. Although Katrina didn’t mention how she felt after reading the stories, I found that, in my perspective, Baker’s story was more effective than Sherry’s story.
