creating an engaging reading
If it’s tough to write it’s even tougher to write one that engaging, or is it?
I have evidenced two types of writing that work for me. 1. Writing as execution of Play[wild-fire] 2. Writing as execution of Plan[following]

The first one is my choice whether its philosophy or science, I prefer the first method.
And to be engaging 1. It should start from the reader, creating a wonder in him 2. It should continue creating wonder. . . 3. It should be short, one-sitting reading
Now creating an engaging reading is very much a question of how to make people wonder and curious every time.
And one can’t create wonder for the sake of it, only an insight can create that. Ie insight creates a broad POV with respect to the topic which can then be used to project it.
Wild fire thinking is essential in this regard. And nothing comes out of thin air without thinking, so all in all it does takes time to make a really good engaging read, but that time is not addition to the thinking time?
And the thought of making the really dry non fiction, makes it to get integrated with the fiction. And embodied metaphors are also worthy in this regard.
In this regard a good writing comes out of play, just as the poet who said , one should keep writing and writing and writing till it causes, pain infact what he saying is that to let the mind to play and get some data which you can then organize and play the game.
Can science be like that, can we make the objective data subjective.
No matter what you are trying to say, if you are trying to make sense, make meaning then you must log on to philosophy, fiction, poetry because that what builds and inspires the meaning it’s not logic and reason as said in ‘Mind in society’ , ‘homo ludes’ and in ‘man play and games’.
What does it mean to have an insight, to have an insight is to have an wonderful understanding of something, to have an unusual understanding of something, and the good news is

    The kind of deep reading that a sequence of printed pages promotes is valuable not just for the knowledge we acquire from the author’s words but for the intellectual vibrations those words set off within our own minds. In the quiet spaces opened up by the sustained, undistracted reading of a book, or by any other act of contemplation, for that matter, we make our own associations, draw our own inferences and analogies, foster our own ideas.…

    “It ain’t whatcha write, it’s the way atcha write it.” (Jack Kerouac). Many things can make a story interesting, the context is not always the most important. The way a writer tells the story is often what hooks the reader, by creating intriguing and eventful dialogue that attracts the reader. Bundles of information can be helpful in giving the reader insight to the characters life. However that information can only keep a reader attracted for so long as the reader desires a dramatic or traumatic event to occur.…

    The first approach relates to the need of knowledge. Every division of science endeavors to utilize one of four different levels of research. These are: to solve for an unknown, aid in developing emerging knowledge, research to give validity to generally accepted knowledge, and to prove already accepted universal knowledge. Once the choice is made as to which method to use, the second approach is to do the research. The common link in all fields of science is they all conduct scientific investigations by collecting observations, developing explanations, and testing explanations. Even though the experiments may be conducted similarly, the purpose for doing them varies.…

    The most vivid memory I have of writing is back in the tenth grade. I had the best teacher ever in regards to writing. I used to view writing as a senseless waste of time. Writing, in my opinion, at the time was always noted to be formal and boring; however, my tenth grade English teacher, Mrs. Perez, changed my whole perception of writing and how it affects humanity. One day after class she pulled me aside and recommended a book known as, “His Dark Materials,” which is about a young girl who, with her allies, fought for the discovery of a dark substance called the “Dust.” The book single handedly altered my mental picture of writing and creativity. Writing can be about anything in the universe, and the possibilities are endless. The main point, however, which ties everything together, is imagination. One’s imagination can truly be defined as infinite to the power of infinite, because it contains numerous amounts of details and features on life and the world itself. How does this tie to writing one may ask. Well an elaborate imagination helps to create an elaborate piece of writing. In the words of Benjamin Franklin, “either write something worth reading or do something worth writing.”…

    The primary virtue of How to Read Literature Like a Professor is it's "duh' factor. Take this trick question: In a lake, there are a patch of lilies, which double in size every day. If this patch of lilies take 48 days to cover the entire lake, how many days would it take for the patch to cover the entire lake? Maybe you think you know the answer. Maybe you have no clue. But then you hear the answer. That it takes 47 days for the lilies to cover half of the pond. It's that feeling - that the knowledge was there the entire time and you just needed someone to show it to you - that's the "duh" factor that makes this book interesting. Finding that "it's more than just rain," or that seasons represent phases of the human lifespan isn't exactly groundbreaking, but it is, because I'd never thought to put the dots together myself, and that's fascinating, because, personally, I find the information on the fringes of my knowledge to be deeply intriguing.…

    Reading has always said to be the key to success, for it encourages learning. Yet, philosophers such as the German Arthur Schopenhauer state that reading too much actually is bad for the mind. I qualify these thoughts as I too agree that the excessiveness of reading may bond the mind’s creativity and freedom, yet feeding on other’s insights is also vital for a well-rounded mindset.…

    The quote “ If there is no struggle, there is no progress.” by Frederick Douglass clearly sums up my experience as a writer. Writing has always been a challenge for me primarily due to a lack of practice and confidence. Whenever I am assigned a writing task, academic or creative, such a journal entry, reflection paper, essay, or research paper, my immediate reaction is instinctively negative and fearful. In addition, I never took the subject seriously in my years of studies because I never deemed writing to be crucial and necessary unless I wanted to become a professional writer.…

    Theory of Writing

    Writing varies from a text message to a novel. Writers often have a difficult task in creating a piece of work that truly identifies the meaning of good writing. Every good writer usually starts with the basics such as genre, audience, rhetorical situation, and reflection of the piece. Throughout this semester, we have gone through all of these key terms in great detail with each new assignment that has come our way. In doing this, not only as students but also as writers, we have come to create our own theory of writing. Every writer has a different theory of writing though most are very similar. Now, at this point in the semester after doing countless journals, in-class exercises, and final assignments, I think I have figured out my own theory of writing.…
