Reading Notes: The Life of Buddha Part A

While reading The Life of Buddha the main thing that stuck out to me was how the plot would never seem really too terrible. It was a calm setting almost always, even when there was a problem. So I think something to focus on while writing my next story would be to maybe switch it up a little and write a story that is more calm than dark and intense like I have been writing. Another thing that I think would be fun to throw in to the mix would be to write with the style that they were writing with. The "O" when addressing a person was interesting to read. I do remember reading Siddartha and reading the strange text like that but I think it adds a different touch to the story. I would like to point out that there was a lot of detail and it was never looking at the negative sides of detail. I think this week I would like to focus on adding more detail to my stories because while I have written a lot with dialect I think more detail will help.
