week 7 reading

How to read like a writer:

In this reading Bunn talked about how to read a piece of writing as if you were writing it. He gives you many examples of what he does that help him write. His writing in this piece was very casual to me it gave a very conversational vibe, he really knew how to talk to his audience.  This kind of conversational relaxed writing I enjoy, because I don’t have to work twice as hard to understand the information they are trying to tell me.  In his work he gives examples of what he does, for example he says when he reads he asks himself millions of question, asking himself, as a writer if he would write this paper similar or what he would change. In his piece of writing he opens with a story which helps start off the essay and show imagery and is a touch of how his writing is going to be through the whole essay. I enjoyed reading not only because it was an easy read but because he made it sound like anyone can do what he does. For example anyone can re-read over their writing or ask a teacher/ friend for their feedback. The advice he gives in this piece is practical and can work for most of his audience who is reading it.
