WRITING STUFF

I found this and turned it into a jpeg so I could show you guys. Sometimes, it's more effective to show your reader exactly what your thinking than just telling them and the way to do that is by using your body. It's tricky at first but once you get the hang of it you'll be throwing stuff into your writing without even thinking about it!

This is a really simplified version of what I use when I write but I thought I'd be just enough to get everyone thinking! Enjoy!

This falls in line with writing so I thought I'd put it here:
Enjoy!
