On writing

Its a strange thing I noticed while being a part of this writing marathon this month. Now whenever I pick up a book I have become so much aware of every word. Every sentence.I find myself critiquing as I read. Its a odd sensation. Normally I just get lost in a good book. It reminds me of a music course I took in college. I learned about the style of music. I never heard a song the same way again as I always break it down into its many parts. I think I have gained a greater appreciation for writing.
