(Pg. 65- 75)
2.) He explains that writing autobiography grows from our "taproots" and deepest childhood memories. I guess I would categorize his ways of writing autobiography's as very personal memories.
5.) I would probably start writing more personally. I would open up and share some of my most important and guarded memories. I am definitely encouraged by his arguments to write more openhearted.
6.) I wouldn't consider anything I've done recently to be what he describes as autobiography's. Everything I have done is very narrative or descriptive/creative, but nothing deep down, and personal.
(Pg. 199-205)
1.) Well they are exactly what she said, "Superficial skills". It's something every child has learned in their high school years, and they are considered just basic skills.I completely agree with her!
2.) She is very right to assume that if were are only writing to improve our grammar skills, we are only going to write boring, pointless, meaningless writing. Stressing grammar skills does not open up creativity.
3.) It definitely creates separation with mind from body, but we all knew that. I'm not sure school can actually create all this spiritual, mind, and body separation in a eye opening way, but I do believe school creates a creativity among your mind I don't think you could have created on your own.
