I loved your article Yi Xue. Very nice job!! I love Rilke and the quotes you used. I have read Malcolm Gladwell’s book also and appreciated how you shared the practical aspects of exceeding 10,000 hours. I’m delighted to read your work and to get a better understanding of what writing means to you. It’s a gift to read your work. Thank you! I will be summarizing some of the articles and responses after the project ‘closes’ at the end of August. Thanks for participating!
