We chose Ernest Hemingway because he is rather influential and his stories make us angry with all the confusion, but we loved to be confused.
So here is a little bit more about Ernest...

I am commenting on Austin Davis and Dakota Schaffer's Prezi.
Their author was Ernest Hemingway. It grabbed my attention because one reason was because it was the only url that worked so go them. It was also the same author as mine, Ernest Hemingway. Their Prezi was rather interesting. It gave us information on it that we did not have and i now have vast knowledge about Ernest Hemingway. He's a very interesting author.
I chose Austin Davis because it was good, and it was one of the only ones that work.
I am commenting on Austin Davis and Dakota Schaffer's prezi.
They had good colors, which caught my attention.
They had good information, and it was easy to understand.
Very good, prezi.
Kameran Schuman- 2nd hour
I am commenting on Austin Davis and Dakota Schaffer's Prezi; their author was Ernest Hemginway.
I really am interested in reading more of Ernest's work because i did that same author, and know a little bit of his writing styles. Their prezi really caught my attention with the pretty blue and i look forward to knowing some of Ernest's famous literature.
I would choose the author, Mark Twain, due to Kayleens prezi, and he writes books that can easily be related to. The prezi gave facts of Mrk Twain, that would be helpful to know before reading it.
I am commenting on Austin Davis and Dakota Schaffer's Prezi.
I like it because it is really colorful and it has a lot of information. I would definitely read Ernest Hemingway's books.

I looked at Arlene, Sydni & Kameran's prezi and it was very good. The information was very easy to understand and it was straight to the point without a lot of exceeding/useless information about good ol' Ernest Hemingway.

The author I would read is Ernest Hemingway. Arlene Reyes, Sydni Ayers and Kameran Schuman's prezi helped me come to this decision. Their information, combined with the information I found about him and his work, makes his famous literature an abundance more appealing. His simplistic and concise writing style is fairly unique, which makes it much more intriguing.
AVB 6th hour
I read the prezi between Sammie, Katie, Hadley, Jace and I. Using our prezi I think the author I would choose is J.D. Salinger. I choose him becuase I've read some of his work and they are very entertaining and I think out of all the authors I would enjoy reading his stories the most.

From the Prezis that I looked at, I found Kurt Vonnegut by the Jellyfish because it was easy to read and understand, and the color made you want to read it instead of it being boring. What they told me about his writings, he sounds very interesting to me.
