1 with a Bullet

After listening to this shot story by Tobias Wolff I realize that I need to start using better describing words in my stories. The reason I say that is because in this sorry I noticed that the author used a lot of describing words, and I believe that is very important to have in order to suck your audience in and paint a very good, and clear picture with words so the reader can feel more apart of the readings.

There were many other things I liked about the sorry, however my favorite part of the short story was when the main character got shot and all of these last thoughts went through his head, none of those thoughts were the big things in his life, it was the small things in his life that were his last peaceful and tranquil thoughts, and memories. I think the author was trying to point out that sometimes the things that mean the most to us in our lives are the small things, like just playing a pick up game with the guys.
