Read the excerpts from "take the tortillas out of your poetry" and "speaking arabic."
my friend had concluded that if he took his language and culture out of his poetry, he stood a better chance of
receiving a fellowship. he took out his native language, the poetic patois of our reality, the rich mixture of spanish,
english, pachuco and street talk which we know so well. in other words, he took the tortillas out of his poetry, which
is to say he took the soul out of his poetry.
at a neighborhood fair in texas, somewhere between the german oom-pah sausage stand and the mexican gorditas
booth, i overheard a young man say to his friend, "i wish i had a heritage. sometimes i feel so lonely for one." and
the tall american trees were dangling their thick branches right down over his head.

invention of the washing machine

in the past, people used sticks and stones or scrub boards to clean their clothing. as it was sweaty, backbreaking work, we owe a world of to james king because he created the model for the modern washing machine in 1851. the most important issue was that this machine cleaned clothes while a person cranked the handle. doing this made people who used it develop strong muscles in their arms. later, in 1908, alva j. fisher created an electric washing machine named thor. this one was not the first automatic washing machine. however, it was one of the most popular models at the time.

i’m writing a memoir and i’ve been given the great suggestion of placing a ‘sub-narrative’ within some of the chapters – sort of, what was going on with me in the grand scheme of things.

i was wondering how to format this so that it is very obvious we are stepping out the of story.

firstly is a change in font from serif to sans workable? i also use dashes for a scene change. was thinking of using a different scene-changer too.

here’s a (shortened) example:

university – or what’s known as ‘uni’ in australia – were some of the best days of my life. where else do you get to potter around in a great location, have very little responsibility, learn lots of things, do lots of things and walk out four years later with a bonus – a degree!

with my university years i had immersed myself into community of intelligent ambitious people. generally everyone had a confidence about themselves. they knew where they were going in life and weren’t threatened by others.

next normal paragraph continues here…
