Guess my point is--I think we started form different positions to begin with--in other words, I am sure, if you wanted to, you could probably write a passage in a different style so to speak, right? Like... you could have approached the prompt of Artichoke from a, like you alluded to, more "factual" perspective (what is an artichoke, maybe listing attributes,) or.. maybe more of a poem about artichokes, right? So, in that sense, we must have some kind of predisposition to write in a certain way and there must be some kind of "intention" behind it, is what im getting at... To that point, I am going to "attempt" on my next prompt to use a more "literary," or "story-like" method. Which is, to me, different than a more "stream of consciousness" "freewriting" activity. Guess it just shows how differently one can interpret the "same" thing!! thanks again. And wish me luck on my "story" ;)
