Gertrude Stein Response 9/21

While reading Gertrude Stein's How to Write I found that the sentences flowed together as though it was making a rhythmic pattern. It seemed very similar to a rhyme or a type of poem. I found a lot of what she said was interesting because it was a lesson and a teaching but in a more different style then what the normal student might be used to. In the first section, Saving the Sentence, it seemed she was creating a non sentence and then right after that period there was the same point only in a different form, that formed a proper sentence. In the second part I found it interesting that Stein stated how "sentence is not emotional a paragraph is". Through out the second section it was about what a sentence is and how it makes a paragraph. My thought was that a sentence is an idea and if you take all those ideas and put them into a paragraph you create a story or a meaning. She states that "A sentence is. Made or make a meaning."
