Ø What is this PN about? What is the aphorism in question? Provide a brief overview of the action. (Don’t ask the author; try to answer based on what you have read.)

Ø As a reader, did you gain some insight or understanding from the author’s portrayal of the person or event that inspired them? If yes, how? If no, why not? How were they inspired and/or changed?

Ø List words or phrases the author uses to describe the situation, experience, or person in question.

Ø Characters: What suggestions to you have to develop the character(s) more fully? What has been done well? What could use some work? Do you have a clear image of each character?

Ø Comment on the story line. Does anything make you want to read on? How does the author achieve this? If not, what is lacking?

Ø How is this piece organized? Effective? Why, why not?

Ø Any other comments? What is your overall reaction to the narrative?
