7 of 12 Crayon response

In the written response with the crayon, the writer is definitely influenced by this writing implement because it is harder to write clearly and as fast as you would with a pen or pencil. The crayon becomes dull very quickly and I think this rubs off on the writer as they are no longer motivated and their writing becomes dull just the same. I think that visual appearance influences the whole outlook of the writer because if they feel sloppy in expressing themselves then they are not going to put in full effort. The crayon is discouraging to advanced writers because they have to go back to a way of writing that they haven't used  for the longest time and it is not what they are comfortable with anymore. If you can't write comfortably then you will not be able to express yourself to the fullest and the writing will not be any good. This particular written response proved that exactly because it was very short and almost didn't even have a complete thought. I found it very difficult to read as well and couldn't quite understand the writing in some parts. If the reader can't even read it and understand it then the writing is not good; the writer is not completely effective.
