Abstract:
For my creative project, my format will be composed in a blog-style format exploring the lifestyle of a 1920s housewife by understanding her daily routine and how feminism in the 1920s flourished. My curiosity around blogs has been a perspective of interest since I have been a middle schooler watching lifestyle influencers on Youtube. I hope to connect deeply into how a housewife lives through a personal format of blogging because I can connect to how reading someone’s blog is a digital diary into their lifestyle.
