Carlos Hernandez has a very interesting story, which is one of the reasons why his stories are the way they are. One thing that really stood out to me when Hernandez came to speak to our class was that he’s trying to be able to write anywhere. He used to have one specific place where he would sit down and write down his thoughts for a new piece of work, but then he began to realize that if he wasn’t in that specific spot to write he would make excuses to not write anywhere else. Hernandez told us that there have been many authors that have written books, poems, etc. in much worse conditions and it’s a good thing they did or else we may not have the insight to certain situations that we do today. I can relate to learning to write in different situations because before college I would always do homework at my desk, but then when I got to college and I had away games for softball I would make excuses to not do homework because I wasn’t at my desk. This has forced me to complete homework in different areas, which I think is a very handy tool to have.
