Journal article "metaphors"

This artical was about a simple metaphor writing assignment a college proffessor gave to all his students, gifted or not, and what can come from this assignment and ones similar to this one. It is organized by separating different types of metaphor written by different students that symbolize different things in their writing styles and history. I believe the central claim to his article is that metaphors are a good way to analyze people and their writing styles and history. It also goes into describing how different fears, strengths, and weaknesses develop from past experiences and how they are found within these metaphors.
Each section of this article shows different types of writing styles and maybe why they developed. Most of the reasons consist of how grading of past essays went or even how the assignment was set up. The way this was set up was a good way of making the different styles clear and separated.
