He seemed to remember clearly the taste of the pizza that him and his friend ate after a long day. Distinct details were recalled as he talked of the family owned Italian restaurant where they found this delicious pizza. The picture of the setting along with the smells and taste of the pizza gave a vivid image of a restaurant atmosphere. The sausage on the pizza along with the extra cheese made me hungry as I heard the details

Rewriting

Academic: 

40 years have past and I can still remember that night in brooklyn, there was a party. I can remember graphic bits and pieces like a knife hanging from a hanging arm at my eye level and running with my mom and dad.  I was only three years old but still that picture is in my mind. 

I remember random images like being seated behind a pegboard desk in the middle of a furnitureles living room at 41 Bartlett Street either in Brooklyn. I remember being nearby Mrs. Ashell and watching my dad walk in with a roll of linoleum. But I don't know why I remember this of all memories. maybe as a three year old I had a sense of affluence being a step up from the storefront flat. 


I remember always having to make the walk from Bartlett to John Lee's hand laundry all alone. Maybe I was 4 From Bartlett to somewhere near the Myrtle Avenue el I was always the shortest person on the street corners. I was the only one waiting for lights to turn green, I don't even remember anyone asking where my mommy was.

Picture of Writing

01614v.jpg


My thoughts: This picture represents my way of thinking about writing. While writing you can either be cold or hot, that is you can either be flowing and coming up with great things to write or you can be stuck with nothing to say. Writer's block can often be experienced and this is clearly depicted by the ice bergs and cold water which the lie ahead of the ships. 

Other's thoughts: This boat is going through tough seas. Writing can be tough and this journey on which the fleet of ships is taking can be related to the journey of writing. With ice chunks and cold water blocking their way, it is tough for the ships to sail through or write fluidly into the sea.
