It's probably not something you want to devote your time to, but if you did, you could probably write a paper, or even a book, on how to find the story. It would be applicable to your field, but I'm betting some aspects could also be generalized to other forms of nonfiction writing.Anniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12588164536314320479noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1391724559179617204.post-33097808985746824702010-07-29T09:30:57.259-04:002010-07-29T09:30:57.259-04:00Very interesting.

The individual time I spent working through problems with master writers was how I truly learned. <br /><br />Of course, our worlds are completely different, but in a way, the process is very much the same. Your students are so fortunate to have you.Juliehttp://juliebuff.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1391724559179617204.post-16908654386345829192010-07-28T22:55:00.299-04:002010-07-28T22:55:00.299-04:00Hell yeah!Hell yeah!Draxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10127086612056086054noreply@blogger.com
