Article Evaluations- The Analysis of Beauty Everything in this article was fairly accurate and informative. I was not distracted away from the page I was intrigued the whole while. All of the links in the article are functional, and direct me to the correct website. There is no information that is out of date. The only thing that could be added to this article is more citations. Considering it is a relatively new article, the author(s) need more proof of their research/findings, which is why in the banner it stated that there was more citations needed to the article.

(Due 11/15/`7) - Samantha Irby Assigned Author Summary: Samantha Irby is a Chicago born author, comedian, and blogger. She utilizes comedy, personal stories, and a feminine narrative in one of her most recent book, “We are Never Meeting in Real Life.” She has a blog called, “Bitches Gotta Eat,” which ultimately enticed her to publish three other books, among which, “Meaty,” her first published book, is being made into a Fox series. Irby emphasizes pop-culture in her books quite often because she believes that many people can relate to regardless if they are actually engrossed in it or not, which is where most of her muse derives from. She is unapologetic in the topics she addresses such as sex, relationships, being African American, her size, etc. because she wants to give people of her size and/or color confidence, and she wants to be the new standard for black women.

I plan to put the page together. My teammates and I will split off the work, first writing about Samantha Irby's writing career and her career before she wrote her books. We will include information about her personal life and the content behind her books, her blog, and her upcoming show. We will try to add as much about her childhood and what influenced her to write and create blogs. There will be a section on her overall biography, a section on her books, a section on her blog, and a section on her upcoming show. As a team, we will divide this work and contribute more sources to the bibliography.
