I thought "How to Read Like a Writer" by Mike Bunn was helpful in starting to question what I'm reading. At the end, I reaaaaallllllyy liked how he went back to the beginning of the essay and started revealing all the thoughts, moves, and questions we should be recognizing and experiencing from now on to Read Like a Writer.
Legit how I felt...
The activity where we all came up with verbs that weren't "says" was really great because I know I definitely overuse "reveals, states, and writes." It was good to learn new vocabulary for the same word because I plan to put them to use for the WP. The brackets activity was also aaaaamazing because I'm pretty sure I have never even used brackets in my writing. I never even realized when, where, and how other writers used them until now. Both of these tips are going to be well-used in my WP.
I'm gunna be honest and say I'm not super excited to start this WP, but I do want to do well on it.
