At first glance, Charles Portis's story about "a strange writing factory" seems to be the antithesis to Louis Bury's "On Writing on Walking." One celebrates the absence of all restrictions and impositions on writing, while the other suggests that constraints are what give written communication its meaning. 1) After reading Portis's story and Bury's essay, identify one thought about writing that both share in common. Note that in the case of Portis, the thought will be expressed by one of his fictional characters. 2) In explaining the similarity that you identify, you will also need to summarize their thinking about constrained and unconstrained writing. http://liminalities.net/5-4/walking.pdf https://main.oxfordamerican.org/magazine/item/268-the-wind-bloweth-where-it-listeth

If a man had a little piece of land or something, a farm, or well... anyway, you've got to have something. You sit down in a place like this, you grit your teeth, you follow me? So don't know what to do. Have no home environment, don't have a dog, don't have anything... just a big zero." -quoted in Division Street: America
