This had a lot to do with the life she had led and the struggled that had helped to define her not only as an artist, but as a woman and

The author, Roy Peter Clark, suggests that in order to be a good write, I should seek original images. I have learned that cliches are a form of automatic writing, meaning that when I cannot think of anything to write I look to banal phrases and writing that people have already seen before. Throughout the school year I will implement unique, original ideas into my writing by avoiding cliche figures of speech. I would rate this as very difficult to do because a lot of writing ideas are very similar. Furthermore writing is usually based on events, people, or places and those aren’t very original to write about either.

By analyzing what needs to be said, conveying that to customers, and constructing the output, Roy Peter Clark shows us that all slogans are works of short writing. Slogans speak for the product where the company cannot. No matter the media it appears from, it has a lasting impression on everyone.
