As a Spoken Word poet, reading anything I write aloud is part of my natural process. I appreciate the points you made about “the impact of grammar” and the “sound” our writing produces. I enjoy the art of writing more when I consider how each sentence sounds. Thank you for writing this article! I, too, encourage reading works aloud!
