Written novels have probably been the most helpful to me so far, since for my project I will be writing a mystery story, and they demonstrate the techniques used by various authors in writing mysteries. They also help me build my skills in being able to recognize certain hidden clues and see the best ways to disguise them. However, technology has been a contributing factor to my progress. I have researched different mystery experts to learn about their styles. I have also watched numerous movies that have given me insight into mystery. I also found some good websites on the internet that give guidelines on how to write mysteries. Without technology, I wouldn’t be able to write this blog, so I guess that’s also a positive, but then again we wouldn’t have the blog in the first place if it weren’t for technology. I think technology can still play a large part in my project as I will keep using it in the same ways I have currently been doing.
