Thoughts on Mark Twain
I think that this is a very cool article about Mark Twain as he was growing up and first starting on his writing career. I think that it is crazy how he caused such a controversy at such a young age, especially since he was told to edit the newspaper. He caused such a huge controversy in his small little town, just from his little actions that he did, when he thought that it was funny and a good joke. I think that he is a very descriptive writer and is very good at writing in what kinds of emotions were flowing and setting the scene to what kind of attitude we should have. If I could meet Mark twain, I think that it would be a very interesting conversation and that it could go on for hours. I would probably ask him how much and what kind of things he read when he was a kid and what sparked his interest in reading so much. I would like to know how he found what he was truly passionate about and what makes him so passionate about it. Why does he like writing, and how does he keep it so interesting? Where does he get his Ideas from, and what does he spend most of his time on during his writing process? What are his favorite types of literature, and what is his favorite story that he has written? What does he do when he is trying to think of ideas for his next big project, and how does he even start such a tremendous work of literature?
Mark Twain is an amazing writer, and anyone who isn’t amazed by the things he does is crazy. Everything he does is done so amazingly and is done so well.
