Really, as you read, you should read backwards, so that when you get to the writing side, you can move forward back towards reading.The One and Only Johnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05389030276109468709noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7174970645573418196.post-53798545566826297622007-09-08T12:54:00.000-06:002007-09-08T12:54:00.000-06:00I don't know.

I should've been more specific when I was talking about the bridge.<BR/><BR/>Not only do you have to be walking it, you also have to be paying attention to how it's built.Alihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05383602477834330336noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7174970645573418196.post-23233884568571831382007-09-07T15:43:00.000-06:002007-09-07T15:43:00.000-06:00It's part of the key.

But they aren't very good writers, these readers of which I speak.<BR/><BR/>So reading with an actual awareness toward understanding the written work--why some words work, why scenes or pieces are in one place instead of another place. Reading with a consciousness.<BR/><BR/>I ask people sometime if they like such and such a book. They say "yes" or "no." I ask, what was or wasn't good about it. They say, "Was just good" or "was just bad."<BR/><BR/>Not everyone knows about the bridge. Books are called--in propaganda style marketting campaigns--windows into other worlds. That's the reader's perspective.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00127638986568582625noreply@blogger.com
