I've bee...Gee, I needed this reminder, myself! I've been writing up a storm of late--but not a word of blog. Writing FILM --and what a change. Our Producer says audience-of-one won't do. It's too the fuck expensive to think that way. And no subtlety or grace. You might leave your audience behind. So I've got a lot to learn, and either do exactly as I please (the most likely road) or write a bunch of crap that anyone can understand without much thought. I don't know how to erite seduction for more than an audience of one (at a time). Even teaching, you can look each individual in the eyes, and see if something is coming in. <br /><br />So, maybe I was wrong, after all. But I'll stick to my guns here. And see what happens down the road. mira amirashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10372005605076355136noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2212115997694971585.post-72832329842724845852013-01-24T14:43:35.474-08:002013-01-24T14:43:35.474-08:00Damn, Mira, I think if I'd read this post whil...Damn, Mira, I think if I'd read this post while still your student (years before you wrote it, of course) I think I might have been inspired to write better papers! As a student, I had to guess what each professor wanted--and it's different for each instructor, so what reads as brilliant prose to you might sound too personalized and intimate for another instructor (especially in the sciences--no first person narrative, ever). More than a little frustrating. But to be given license to seduce with my words...who knows what sort of brilliance might have been born from such inspiration!RioinLAhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18240991342691569964noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2212115997694971585.post-90874886197502462212012-08-15T09:02:41.563-07:002012-08-15T09:02:41.563-07:00Or a nice fountain pen.
