By far the most difficult process of turning a piece of literature into a serious of tweets, was deciding concisely which words to use, due to the 280 character count. Despite the original 400 word source material, it was very difficult to pick which words to cut and shape for the lower amount of space. I chose to discuss the setting, how it was told to me later in life, and why John Douglas is still relevant to me. I found myself using more relaxed and non-academic wording, trying to ‘tweet’ it like I was speaking the story out loud.
I think that the twitter link I provided is an extremely prevalent example of communication and computer technology. Twitter has become, politically and socially, more important in terms of the most recent information being available. Therefore, if I would want to tell many people, my followers, this story it makes it much easier. I also used a GIF to display an emotion my father had because it was easier to convey visually, rather than use a sentence. Overall, I used a much different style or writing for my tweets that I would describe as very conversational and relaxed.
