“How to read like a writer”

The Article by Mike Bunn “You are already an author” means to me is by taking this course or reading this Article we can that that knowledge to use in our writing to become better writers in the future. We can become better by picking up new strategies from those who are better writers or by reading. One specific part I found interesting about Bunn’s is when he said “writing is a word by – word, sentence by sentence”. Sometimes many of us tend to rush including me maybe like what I am doing right now but we don’t take our time to process what we write on paper. We don’t see if we can use better word choice or if our sentences are completed understandable sentences. What I’ve noticed from my writing is that I write in general like if I’m speaking to an audience when I should be writing in specific. I’ve always had trouble with finding ways to not sound boring but make my writing interesting so the reader can have questions after or assumptions while reading or after reading. There are many things I liked about Bunn’s article many things that I will start using in my writing not only to become better in this course but to improve with my own writing. I would use quotes to start my essays I had professors that will tell me if I wanted to make my writing interesting I should start with a quote to catch the reader’s attention reading this article I don’t if it’s the best idea how do I know if the quote is too long or short. The advice he gave me I will keep in mind every time I write. I won’t become a good writer over night but if I practice I can be.
