5/19/2023 0 Comments Whispers of War by Sean Rodden![]() Highly emotional passages fall flat for me - excitement fails to build. In general I find when I listen to writing read aloud, even by experts, it has far less impact on me than when I read it from the page. Perhaps it's because my imagination is resident in the language - rather than an image that I then need language to translate - that people seem to like my prose.Ĭontinuing the theme of sensory integration/experience and how it relates to writing and consuming writing: I can't listen to my audiobooks. When I write I think in terms of the words, the language, how it makes me feel - I'm not seeing a TV image in my head and trying to describe it to you - I'm trying to find the language that evokes what I'm thinking about, and what I'm thinking about isn't a picture - it's a complex, shifting mass of associations, sprinkled with flashes of different views and images. I glimpse aspects of images among a shifting mix of associations and changing/connected forms. I'm not quite in the 3-5% but I certainly never 'see' crystal clear images in my mind. ![]()
