Thogg Week 6 (awkward this was saved as a draft and therefore posted late)

This week we started to work on WP2 and oh my goodness this task seems suite daunting. The sheer amount of writing that is wanted here seems like a ton let alone the fact that there are so many parts, and each part has so many different questions within it. Coming up with a thesis that allows for me to be able to address all of these pieces is going to be my second biggest challenge, but first I need to pick a topic and pick my sources. Some of my class mates have come up with some really interesting ideas such as a certain celebrity or some kind of disorder or injury, maybe this will lead me to be able to come up with one of my own. Something I think I could find a lot about seems to be eating disorders, maybe something more specific like anorexia. With that idea in mind it will be interesting to see what I come up with for a thesis statement. As I was so sick that I slept all of wednesday I was not there for class and did not get my outline looked at, hopefully this will not have taken away from my WP2. After our first class I really felt like I had a great concept of what moves are, they seem to be a specific choice an author has made to enhance their writing in a particular way. As said by number 7 on the journals moves can be confusing to define, so actually being able to call them out becomes very difficult at some points. This was something I definitely struggled with when writing my paper, yeah I see how or what the author is trying to do, but how do I exactly call it out to discuss it? This will be my biggest challenge in WP2.
