i am doing a research paper on ray but i have no idea what to do it on. should i focus on just one of his works or what inspired/influenced him?

if you want to send me an instant message send it to: urantiancreature.

thank you.

'''What inspired Ray and influenced him'''... should be something of a topic to tackle. The more ambitious topic for sure....

i'm ahead of you my friend. my thesis is now, "ray bradbury's childhood fascinations with magic and fantasy escalated into what is now known as his literary style." now i just need information to support it. i have a lot of little things but they are all vague. ex. his mother taking him to the theater. i can't write a paragraph on that. any suggestions?

In these kinds of questions, it is somtimes helpful to read his introductions, afterwards, and his interviews. I'd start there.

And don't overlook his real-life meeting with Mr. Electrico--one of the defining moments in his life.

Don't overlook the resources at this site:
http://www.raybradbury.com/articles.html
www.raybradbury.com (link at bottom of this page) has articles, biography, and some interviews (I believe). Be sure you have checked these out.
