Dillard & Sanders

I enjoyed reading the excerpts from Dillard's and Sander's writings. It was comforting to me to know that these literary artists had such problems with figuring out what to write. Dillard's was my favorite, though I'm not sure why. I think maybe it's because she was so passionate about what her life as a writer was like at the moment. She described how difficult it was for her to get coherent thoughts down on paper. Whereas Sanders spent much of his time talking about where you write from; Dillard spend her time discussing what writing was actually like for her.
