What is Writing?

When asked to explain what writing is, I automatically jump to an essay. But writing is so much more, writing can be one word that moves you or even a historic speech. Writing is something taught to you at a very young age, and is drilled into your head all of your academic career. It is something that we cant live without, but also something that some people cannot do. Writing makes the word happen (Along with other things of course) when you think about your daily activities almost every single one involves writing.

Where does FYC fit in?

First year composition is not actually your first year writing. In fact for most people it is their 10th or 11th year writing. FYC is very important at solidifying what kind of writer you are,and where exactly you belong in the writing community.

Revised

Writing can be delivered in so many ways in today’s world. An author/ reader relationship is crucial to make sure the message trying to be conveyed is understood. Authors of personal blogs even have to keep the reader in mind so their views don’t come off in an awkward way. Just Like the reader and author need a relationship, so do the writer and the text. Without that relationship writing would be just words without meaning. These relationships mold writing into what it is intended to do, which I believe is to communicate your thoughts with other people.
