I adore reading long narrative magazine pieces (when they're good, not self-indulgently long) but I'm terrible at that kind of writing. Should I try to learn it, or should I stick with my strengths and stay focused on ideas and analysis?

the secret is if you want to do things like this but don't have the ear yet to weave it all together all you have to do is write two pieces
-
write the narrative of the character, write the analysis of the situation, chop both up into sections, alternate between pieces' sections with fancy section breaks
-
this is a good idea, I will try to implement it
-
if there's one thing I learned from english program it's aside from legitimate Great Works, anything of any apparent depth or quality can be constructed according to a process
-
and once you work out the process you can more or less paint by numbers a brand new thing arranged in a similar form and evoking similar emotions
