This lens represents a writer's ability to adapt to different areas of writing, so I chose an essay where I would have to write from the perspective of the essay being on a review website of books. The purpose of the essay was to provide a summary of the book Neuromancer and describe how we reacted to it. Instead of writing a completely academic paper, this essay demonstrates that even in an informal setting I am still capable of producing academic quality writing. For example, even though it wasn't necessary to cite the book, I was still able to incorporate the information into my argument and sentence without changing the flow of the article, using the quote that gives Gibson's description of the Neuromancer's eyes as " unstable crystal eggs, vibrating with the frequency whose name was the rain and the noise of trains, which suddenly sprouts a forest of very thin glass thorns. Although the quote is quite long and can easily control the flow of the sentence, I managed to put it in my sentence. Instead of shortening the quote to make this challenge easier, I decided to use the whole sentence so that the effect of the description can fully influence the audience to write in different scenarios and to different audiences, while maintaining my academic merit in my articles The book review Critique of the Neuromancer helped me present my understanding of the first course findings through my academic tone in a non-academic context..
