12. (what I put do NOT copy word for word just incase the teacher knows)
Pacing can impact the tone of a narrative piece of writing because of the different types of writing. For example, if someone were to make an action movie the producer would use pacing to switch a part of their story to the next part. As though someone were to write a biography about someone then the producer would use slow pacing so that the one reading the story can read the details of what is happening and then visualize it and understand what's happening.
11. (I got this inspiration from @Mitsuri konroji from kny)
They are describing the blanket as a warm hug from an old friend, which lets me (the reader) know how the blanket feels, it's warm and comfortable when on her and it makes her feel good inside.
hope this helps yall out
again do NOT repeat this word for word just in case the teacher knows.
