Analyzing writers choice.....

http://abcnews.go.com/US/September_11/911-survivors-reflect-world-trade-center-pentagon-attacks/story?id=14459825
The author of this story shows and talks about what happened to the captain of a New York fire department on 9/11 he expresses the fear and the guilt that Jay Jones felt after the incident.... In the story it talks about how Jones was feeling full of regret for not being able to help more people that he should of. "Like, what could you have done? What could have you said? Could you have made any changes?" she said she wondered. "Then, after the fifth anniversary, it was kind of like, enough, you know. ... You can't change the events. You can't change what you did that day. You couldn't have made any other people leave that day but you don't have to live with fear."(Jones) When the author wrote this you really felt the pain and regret that Jones felt that day. I think that's what the author did well she made you sort of feel what Jones was feeling and how regretful she felt after the ordeal. That's how all authors should be they should make you feel like if you were the person that was being written about.
