Response to prompt #4

4. Foster talks about the relationship between the reader and the writer suggesting that “reading is an event of the imagination... a reader’s imagination is the act of one creative intelligence engaging another (the writer’s). How does this occur? What does this suggest about the nature and process of reading and writing?

When reading, an individual will begin to visualize what they are reading. What they see all varies and depends on the reader. This occurs because naturally it helps the reader come to a better understanding of what the text is about. When you are able to visualize, it draws you in and helps you to read more intellectually. This is overall the best way to read, with an open mind, and letting your imagination flow because it makes the reading experience overall more efficient.
