About a month ago, I went to Mr. Piquet wanting to get ahead on the author project. I did this knowing how difficult is was for my brother last year, thus I wanted to begin this lengthy project. Initially I sat down at his round wooden table to talk about a recent paper I had written. This conversation went in the direction of the author project- the discussion was very brief due to few mistakes in my previous paper. Then I popped the question "How can I get started on my author project?" He began to tell me that it wasn't as hard as I thought it would be. There was one major way that I could get ahead and that was to pick my author. Then out of no where he launched a series a questions that would help me. "Do you like to read?"

ng and the authors I like are ones I am forced or strongly recommended to read. As I answered his questions, I told him that I don't like to read, but I do like Fitzgerald; I only like his writing because it keeps me interested and it flows. Mr. Piquet asked me another question, "Did you like Toni Morrison?" This time I was very straight forward with him. I told him that I absolutely hated her writing style; it was the opposite of Fitzgerald. I felt that it took her way too long to get me interested in the book and the only reason that I finished it was because it was an assignment.
