Stitch Bitch
After reading Stitch Bitch I really didn't understand what she was talking about. I thought that she used to many metaphors for me to understand it. She doesn't really stick to one point and keep going with it. She likes to jump around and go back to points. For me this was very hard to read because i kept having to think about it after I read something.

I agree, it's so much easier for me to read something that follows a guideline and not only doesn't jump from topic to topic but also gets it's point across easier without the metaphors. According to Bartholomae's 'Inventing the University', it's so much easier to write in simple terms, without all the sugar coating and stupid stuff that modern writers think is good. Of course, it's a good idea to use big words and the occasional metaphor, but if an entire piece is riddled by metaphors like Stitch Bitch is, it just ruins it for me.
