Jofre R. Period 7

Early on while reading The Infinite Suggestiveness of Common Things you get an inner perspective on the writing style Madden uses.  He describes that a writing teacher he used to have asked him "What will you do when you run out of experiences in your life to write about?" Suggesting that he would eventually have to turn to fiction for ideas because he would end up with rewriting significant events in his life which would leave him with nothing.  With what his teacher told him Madden eventually describes that their are many stories and important things hidden in every day life.  He uses children as a big example through out the piece saying how they have that inner perspective on looking at things differently.  That children have wonder and questions to why things happen, and through this he has become a better writer. "Thankfully, I recognized the world whispering, put fingers to keyboard let the ideas collaborate and grow", I like this sentence in that he was awoken by his daughter to look at things differently.  Meaning in other words that we all have that inner perspective of looking at things in a way in which we have never seen it before, unlocking this will in my opinion make us become better writers.
