In Pat Conroy's memoir My Losing Season, in fact, he goes into great depth about the books he was devouring at that point in his life and what they meant to him.
Because it's takes time for the author to write a story and it takes great thinking.

blog 3 for creative writing..
1. Congratulations! You wrote your first play. Reflect on your experiences here in paragraph form. Be sure to including explanation for your ideas. Write at least 75 words.
Some things to consider are:
Well the things that i consider is how i did the play and how I set the characters i wanted to change that because after i read it i didn't like how i set the characters i wanted to change that.
What limitations about the form did you find frustrating?
What i found frustrating is how i couldn't write it out in the way i wanted to write but, it doesn't matter i like how my play looks like so yeah.....
What strengths did you see in the form?
The strengths that i see in the form is length of the play and the story line.
What pleasant surprises did you find in writing a play?
The pleasant surprise that i found writing the play was that how i performed the lengths and how i placed the characters.
What unpleasant surprises did you find in writing a play?
The unpleasant surprises that i found in the play was i was i added some interesting characters and had a little more information on the characters like where they lived and how old they were and what they did for a living.
Would you ever be interested in attempting drama writing or any of its sister forms, screenplays or television scripts? Explain.
No, because I'm more like a medical doctrine person.
If you could give advice to a kid who was 5 years old or 10 years old (pick one), what advice would you give him or her on growing up in today's world? Would you give advice based upon your own experiences? Would you give advice based upon what you see in others? Would your advice be based on their thoughts, their choices, peer issues, school? Explain your advice and why you give it. Write at least 100 words.
Well, i would go for the 10 year because they have more of a brain then a 5 year but if i was going to give an adivce i would say learn from your own mistakes and live life to the fullest..And it would be on my everyday life...
Great works of literature can last a long time. Jane Austen's novels (including Pride and Prejudice, Emma, and Sense and Sensibility) are still popular almost 200 years after they were first published. Anne Bradstreet's poems have survived about 400 years. The works of Greek playwright Euripides (who wrote Medea) have survived for over 2000 years. What do you think causes great literary works to live forever? Could you ever foresee yourself writing something that lasts that long? (Write at least 75 words.)
No; i don't i see myself writing a Literary works that lasts about 200 to 400 years because like i said it's in impossible for me because i see myself as a medical person...
