Thlog week 4

Thlog week 4

We only had reading assignments and PB2A this week so I guess I can call it an “easy week.” We learned about the writer’s “moves.” I think moves can be defined as writer’s unique technique of writing that can work as an attraction factor for readers. By saying “attraction,” I mean how writers make readers to think or get the message that the writer wanted to give. Many popular writers, singers, and dancers have their own moves. For example, in class, we went over with Michael Jackson’s dance/singing moves. He wears red leather jacket, sings in unique way, and makes other moves. By learning how to recognize the writer’s moves, I can now tell what the intention of writer’s writing is—whether it is to persuade or inform. And as a writer, I can create or use other writer’s famous moves to make my own writing stand out!

Zack told us about the article—How to Read Like a Writer, by Mike Bunn—so many times that made me read this right after I got home that day. I was not actually expecting greatness of this article since I reading is not my favorite. But after reading this, I wanted to write a piece of writing, any kind of writing, to test out Bunn’s suggestions. It was inspirational, informational, and quite interesting. So Zack, if there’s any other article that you want us to read, Zack, throw it at us!
