Response 2, Week 6

Response to Ben's "Free Write 1, Week 5"

Ben,
When writing about events or thoughts that actually occured in life, it is difficult not to stick to the story, so to say. Sometimes it is helpful to mix language play with communication, imagination with reality. This allows for more freedom and room for surprise. It also feels good to chanel real-world thoughts into questions you're not really asking, statements you don't really claim. I also suggest trying to answer some of your questions. They create amazing opportunity for imaginative (and imagistic) responses. I would like to see these, because the questions themselves intrigue me.
