I know I have. At times I can’t quite put into words every thought, plot, and plan that is floating around in my head. After writing a paragraph, I’ll read it a second time and deem it to be a bit wide of the mark. I’ll find myself refining it several times until I get it to http://austinppcc.blogspot.com/2009/10/importance-of-development-and-revising.htmlnoreply@blogger.com (Austin)0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-96154214962367746.post-1388765181080968322Sat, 19 Sep 2009 21:55:00 +00002009-09-19T14:55:34.096-07:00In my English course, we had a discussion about what we read. We read about six essays which were mainly about how technology is changing, or even more specifically, cyberspace.

They write to each other in a way that they think is fast and efficient. Most people use this way of communicating to get a quick note across.

Maybe it’s a brother and sister arguing about whose turn it is to do the dishes. It could even be two people at a convenience store arguing about who should get the last bag of skittles.
