The writer loved reading the books when he was older. If he was able to read those books earlier would it have made him into a even better writer than he is now? Or would it have stunted his growth as a writer by overwhelming him with information? ]]> 2017-08-25 20:14:55 UTC https://padlet.com/ms_hadikusumah/sbdpsi1apcon/wish/182898838 https://padlet.com/ms_hadikusumah/sbdpsi1apcon/wish/182898888 I find the author's explanation of his inspiration, "the click" to be interesting. He describes his inspiration to be in bursts and spontaneous. ]]> 2017-08-25 20:15:15 UTC https://padlet.com/ms_hadikusumah/sbdpsi1apcon/wish/182898888 https://padlet.com/ms_hadikusumah/sbdpsi1apcon/wish/182898893 One of the examples the author used ("He, also, had a mother.") was very interesting to me.
