>read story>can't say or write anything interesting about itwhat the fuck is wrong with me
>>25278289you just gotta read more ss until you can I guess. Try reading some literary criticism too
Think about it for a whileThe insight has to bubble up from your unconscious to your conscious mind
>>25278289>anything interestingbecause you're making an evaluation before you do it and/or damning it the moment you doyou're not going to impart the same feelings the story made you feel, you're probably not even going to be on the same caliber of itwhy should that stop you from your own expression?
>>25278289Start with basic shit. No need to write an essay off the cuff.>Did you like the story?>What parts/characters/bits of prose did you like?>Why did some characters act a certain way?>Is the author trying to convey a message or moral?Eventually broad questions become specific and answers become insight. You'll be aight.
