In “How to Read Like a Writer” Mike Bunn says “You are already an author.” I believe what he meant by this is reading someone else’s experience and putting it into your own. Situations such as “What would you do? Would you take this job at hand? Or would you talk to this person instead of the other one?” It’s about the choices you make. Different perspectives can shine different meanings of the writings and stories at hand. Some of the things Bunn writes that I like to write is through a type of experience. It can be simple ones in life as everyone is different in their own way. Everyone goes through different experiences in life. We can cook different, shower different, dress differently, etc. The words we use in our everyday lives can tell a story. A conversation we’ve all had with our parents or friends can hold memory to you. Like books stored in your mind, making you the author of your own story. Writing like this can help me understand what I can write on paper, elaborating on my past experience improving myself. Making it sound more authentic and sophisticated. This would also make the reader engaged and question themselves if they would do things differently. They would then be convinced of themselves that they can share their thoughts on a book they can possibly write sharing a brand new inspiring experience for all. We all keep little notes to ourselves without even realizing it. These thoughts can either be provoked or shared. All good thinkers tend to overthink things and over examine their work but it’s always for the better. Especially when writing. “How will we be able to hook our reader? Will he/she continue to read on if this is not interesting enough?” Although these may seem as challenges at first good authors can use this as a satisfying achievement to get their readers to continue reading.
