Its so funny how you learn all this in english in 8th grade, and then again in college using the MLA format and all that jazz. But its crazy how often a writer forgets to use these valuable principles when not in the classroom structured environment! Great read! I took notes and It's only gonna sharpen and temper my focus even more.
Timothy,
Somehow I accidentally deleted your comment, so I recreated it from the email notification.
Glad you found it it helpful. I hesitated posting it since I posted The Writer article last May, but thought, just in case someone missed it...
In eight grade, we think we'll never need to use any of this stuff, our minds elsewhere (usually on girls). Then later, we scratch our heads. This all seems vaguely familiar.
I've had colleagues at the university here in Malaysia who learned this when they studied overseas in the US or UK, and I asked them, do you teach it to your students, and they look at me funny, as if that thought had never occurred to them in the ten years they've been teaching!
Thanks a lot for this. I can't seem to enlarge the first page, has the file disappeared?
Daniel,
Thanks! Just fixed it!
