PS to Barry Lane chapter 1-5

I an still ruminating on the first 5 chapters.

I think that I want to practice more with the concept of snapshot and thought shot in my own writing.

I like the idea of mastering each separately and then putting them together, after thinking through where the "pivotal" moment to insert a thought shot is most effective.

I have begun a writing piece that I would like to pursue that combines these two crafts of writing.

  1. one thing i love is that something can be "mastered" multiple times. What looks like mastery at third grade is different from 11th is different from various stages of adulthood and writerhood. isn't this exciting? ...or maybe i'm just easily pleased ;)

  2. I totally agree. Your musing also corresponds to the various developmental stages.
