How Hemingway Edits
"I've seen every sunrise in my life, " he (Heimingway) said. "I rise at first light, and I start by reading and editing everything I have written to the print where I left off. That way I go through a book several hundred times in manuscript and worked it over thirty times in prof, trying to get it right."
this is from jane's blog, and i chose to write about it, because i am doing hemingway for my research paper, so any quote about him sticks out as valuable and interesting.... yes... i also just really love this quote, because it sounds so romantic... it makes the professional happs on writers, like a great (HEMINGWAY), seem so amazing. how peaceful, to wake up every morning, and get right to work on writing, and enjoy to sunrise at the same time. GOOD QUOTE JANE!!!
i love seeing that other people in the class comment on things outside of class... christine, for example, writes about "the art of motercycle maitenence," which, of course was a text of the day, so i wrote on it too, and its interesting to see varied opinions. when christina mentions, "All my life I have had teachers that made their students do it the teacher's way." i TOTALLY sympathize... i think i mention this too in my response to the text 4. christina must have gone to a school like LGAC!
