Essay 2 reasoning

My essay has gone through three revisions so far and still leaves the audience with the same question; “Where is this going?”. The idea for this essay wasn’t to tell a story, or explain a definition, nor was it to compare to things. To put it best, i wanted this essay to come out to be in the descriptive genre. My main idea when i sat down to write this paper was to describe a picture of a famous scene in a book/video game. In my final draft I attached the picture to give the reader a better idea of what i am talking about, but i waited to put it at the end to let the reader see if what they visualized from my words actually matched the picture attached. I believe my paper is in the descriptive genre because it meets the main criteria for the genre, being very descriptive. By the end of the first paragraph alone I have used over twenty different adjectives, and many more follow in the proceeding paragraph. My paper also has narrative characteristics and it would be wrong for me to deny that. The story is told through the eyes of one of the characters in the picture. The character describes the story threw his eyes. This being said the genre would be best defined as a descriptive narrative.
