Blogpost#2

I am now a fan of wideman. I would love to read more of his work. I believe the way he writes is so very very veryyyy creative. He is a detailed author and the way he organizes his books makes me want to read more. Basically it intrigues me. I've neva met an author that I would really want to continue to read their material except Langston Hughes, because I really love poetry. But wideman is a very good author and I really truly enjoyed the book. I love the imagery that he provided because it made me feel connected to the book. I feel as if I could feel what wideman's characters were feeling. I like the fact that I could feel connected with the book. I believe that's the point of writing, to make your audience be able to connect with your story.
The way wideman started his book off is what kept me interested. He was so very detailed off the rip. Most books start off slow and boring, but his book didn’t lag a bit. I really loved this about it. I am glad I got a chance to read it. Wideman also chooses his words and sentence structure wisely. This is also what kept me interested as well. His sentences flow easily within his paragraphs of his story. He reminds me of the author mark twain. They both are very detailed and the way their stories are described keeps you intrigued the whole way. I hope to have more works off wideman throughout the year.

Blogpost #1 Due (Relationship with Writing: 350 words)

My relationship with writing is quite simple. I love it. I love to write because it allows me to be myself and to b creative, I love how writing can b used in a million different ways. My favorite way to use writing wud have to be using it to brighten someones day. Some people may be feeling down but yu can use writing to make a poem for instance that will make them smile. Making people smile is something i like to do. My relationship with writing used to b sort of  bad, i hated writing. I feltt as if writing wasn't going to get me anywhere. As I grew older i realized that writing is something that everyone needs to be successful, and that's exactly what I want to be. I use to feel as if writing was boring. It was dull to me. I absolutely hated it with a passion. Its so funny how I have seen my relationship with writing evolve into such a great form of creative expression. writing has helped me come through so much, such as hard times and obstacles that i have gone thru. The first time i remember it helping me  thru a difficult time was when my great grandmother  died, it was such a tough time. I established a journal that i used to get me thru it. Writing makes me feel like im doing  something right everyttime i write. Being creative is also always a good thing. Being creative gives me the ability to look past where i am as a writer now and lets me know that i can always get better in tha future. Thats the great thing about writing.  U can never stop improving on your writing. You can never stay the same. I am constantly  improving on my writing  every single day.
Thats the beauty of writing. To me nothing compares to writing. Nothing is a better outlet than writing. Writing is one of the few things on this entire earth that I can say trufully can change you as a person. It has the ability to make you into a better person. Without writing I wouldn't be who I am today. Writing of course goes hand in hand with reading which is another thing I love to do. Writing is such a good thing to do in general.
