Distinction between reading to imitate and reading to be inspired: . I don’t want to sound like Liz Dubelman (there is only one you), but your words excite me to write my words, kind of like Tag, you’re it! You say “the way you mutter to your dog” and my brain goes right into muttering mode and God is there endless material in my muttering. I can’t think of a better channel to the repository of our lived experience.
Loved your lesson for the week. It tickled me and made me laugh. And besides that it rang true. The recap of the adventures of Betty and friends is also a good exercise since if you can make an abstract like that, you know your stories are going in the right direction. Personally, I hope you end up making Betty into a book. Giggled all the way through the last episode, adore your metaphors, and my sides hurt so much from laughing that I can’t write anymore today. Keep up the great work.😂
