IMPROMPTU PROMPTED BLOGGERISH

Can You Remember When You Couldn't Write?

BCOF:

Today we are asked to talk about one of our best memories.  A very large percentage of my writing is about my memories.  I'm just going to post a previously written memory.

C. Hale says writing is innate, while E. Pound says writing is learned.  This is why I say EVERYTHING is true.  They are both right and they probably aren't even talking about the same thing.  We can never know what anyone really means.  We can never know if our definitions of the words used are the same as theirs.  I'm sure that what Ezra pound means by writing requires much practice.  Some would consider what Ezra writes as good  writing, maybe most would consider it good writing.  I would say that a Stream of Consciousness from an untutored amateur can be just as good.
