When I initially began working on my memoir, I knew that I wanted it to be about minds, as I often feel as though the mind is more important than other aspects of people. I started out with "In love with minds, not faces." Throughout the creative process, I began to realize that the wording could be improved, and I changed "in love" to infatuated. I also changed the punctuation to make the reader pause while reading it. I chose and took the picture, as I felt as though it communicated my love for intellectual minds, by showing a work of philosophy by John Locke. I placed the pen and paper there, as I felt as though, it made the thought seem more profound. I chose "Angelina" for the font, as a handwritten font went along the best with the picture, and helped to make it appear more simplistic, and less complex. I left a space between the two sections, as I wanted the reader to pause, as I felt as though the pause made the message more powerful. It also looked very bunched together and uneven when I placed the two sections of words directly next to each other. Due to all of these different aspects, I felt as though the image and memoir communicated my simple love for minds.
