For Gould ecrever "with the door closed" means that when you have a story to tell, you should write it the way it is in your head, as if you are the only person who should have access to that story at the moment, or that is, you must write with the door closed, in solitude, without interference.

Rewriting "with the door open", however, means that you must edit your story to make it available to others. This means that you must leave your story free for the public, for opinion, for criticism and even for the compliments to come.

These two concepts are important, because they manage to make the writer express and explore all his creativity and narrative capacity in a way that satisfies him, to the point that the writer feels like sharing that story with the world and improving it to achieve that will . This is what makes a good story.

anyanavicka [17]

The transition words are used to link words, phrases or sentences in order to help the reader to progress from one idea to the next idea. They also help to build up coherent relationships within the text. Transition words have been assigned to artificial categories such as: agreement, opposition, causes, examples, effect, conclusion etc.

In the first sentence transition word is “and” (“…bespoke repression and even a certain strength”) which belongs to the category of agreement transition words (alongside again, then, also…)

In the second sentence transition word is “but” (“But now there was a dull stare in her eyes…”) which belongs to the category of opposition (alongside still, unlike, yet, while…), whose gaze was fixed away off yonder on one of those patches of blue sky.

<span>In the third sentence is the transition phrase “but rather” (“…but rather indicated a suspension of intelligent thought”), in category of opposition.</span>
