Straight to the point!
I like the style of writing that is more clear and straight to the point. It's funny because writing is suppose to be about imagination, interpretation and creativity which I like to a certain point, but too much interpretation leaves me uninterested. Like I said in previous blogs, I like structure and following the rules. When there isn't an actual ending to a story and I have to make it up, I do not enjoy the story as much. I like having a beginning, middle and end. Autobiographies and true stories are definitely my favorite style because I don't have to figure anything out. It's all there in the writing. I do like readings that leave a little bit up to you. I enjoyed reading 'Occurance at Owl Creek Bridge.' I have a hard time explaining how that is more enjoyable to read as opposed to 'The Ashtray' but I guess it's because a story has been developed and I can clearly see in my head what is going happening. I feel like I am actually a really picky reader. If it doesn't grab me in the first 3 pages I probably won't read it.

I completely agree with you! I am very to the point in my daily life and I think it carries over into my writing. I am horrible at explaining things in tons of detail because I prefer to just "spit it out" and expect everyone to understand what I am saying. I like my essays to have a clear structure also. It makes me feel organized and on top of my work
