Maya Angelou

1) What insights did you gain reading this interview?

Well an insight was that she tired to remember some incidents in her life to write about. To make her autobiography more interesting to read.

2) What do you think Angelou means by "deep talk" and how does it relate to her writing?

What i think "deep talk" means is she wants to show people she's serious in her writing. I think it gives her a unique way of writing and a more serious view in her writing.


3) How does Angelou balance an awareness of her audience with a concern for her craft as a writer?

She likes to keep her audience aware but add in her own style of writing. She acts herself to make it fun but also let her audience know she's serious.
