Reader’s Response
Description
These are places for you to practise thinking on the page. Give your self a time limit and write without stopping and editing. They are not formal submissions. Locate a small area of text; a page, a paragraph, etc. Choose something that you liked, or were puzzled by, or impressed with, or any number of personal, intellectual responses. Work your way through your thinking. Follow out the threads of your thoughts. Get very close to the text and observe it closely. How does the writer work to produce the response you have? Connect your thinking/reactions/responses to the writing. Don’t be vague, general or cliche. Don’t be performative.
