The Style

Hopefully this final project will emerge, stylistically, as one of the best pieces that I have written. I noticed that certain aspects of my writing style have been objected to in both the proposal and the progress report. They are duly noted, but the way I write is the way I write. Nevertheless, my goal for this, and most any other writing, is to illustrate my argument, topic and message with my words. That has always been the most enjoyable, rewarding and challenging part of writing. It is how I place my own personal mark on my writing and as a result I have a certain attachment to that style. I want to bring Fenway to life with this project, not merely restate facts and observations. That to me is what interesting writing is about. I wish I were Bruce Springsteen. Nobody paints with words like he does.
