This post, Sam's transformation, gives me hope for my own inner fieldwork. I noticed an exasperated dimension of my self took note of the work in this post. That part questioned how hard this process may be. I, my self, was bit stirred up, unsettled, by some of the descriptions of parts of Sam's set. This tells me there is deep recognition, a relating, to to them. The post flowed well, the layout of Sam's personal words, and the commentary were well placed and balanced.

Thank you, Linda, for affirming how well this post worked for you. I love how aware you seem to be about the different parts of yourself and how they responded differently to different phases of the story in the post. That's a great starting place for entering fieldwork!

I laughed out loud when I read "Really, really doesn’t look fun, does it?" because that's EXACTLY what I was thinking!

I love these examples, and how you list them all in one place. I'm so happy I'm not the only one whose life was turned around so completely by fieldwork <3
