The word that I am going to develop my little piece of nonfiction on is struggle. This word can go with so many thing in my life. Even if its good or bad there's many stories to be told behind this word. The word struggle has many meanings behind it and I plan on portraying the few sides of the word through my story. I hope that I can make it good and really get this assignment down to the T because its interesting and different. I chose this word because I couldn't really think of  word at first and then I just thought like well my whole life has been a struggle that I am blessed to be making it through because there's not too many people that can actually say that they have overcome there struggles. Some people are still living in there struggle from being a child, Can you imagine that?Having to deal with something your whole entire life. Depressing is the word to describe that.

Maps To Anywhere, when I first got this book the cover just threw me off and make me thing a lot if things about how creative writing was going to be. I was like "what the heck we need a book of maps for??" Then I opened it and seen what was inside and skimmed through to kind of get the jest of why it had that title. Inside are some stories about places and some about objectives and things of that sort. Its an ok book so far, doesn't really catch my attention that much.  There's isn't a theme that ties the stories together, many essays include different points about the beginning topic within the few pages in which the work resides.  These writings are very diverse and recounts Cooper's lessons and important stages in his youth and throughout his life. It tells stories about how things came along to be and how they were developed and just they story behind it all.

A story that I actually enjoyed reading was Potato Spirit. It reminded me of my addiction to French fries. I just love love love them. Everyday I just got to have them. Potatoes are just amazing and they fill you up when your hungry. Matter of fact I just got hungry thinking about them. The one painting that's The Potato Eaters doesn't reflect how I feel because I feel that potatoes can fill you up and stop you from being hungry. Potatoes are just good.
