Quote of the day #3 from Richard E. Miller
"The five-paragraph essay, it
turns out, is a very limited form, one best suited to the work of making
simple claims and reporting or describing supporting evidence. (It’s
also easy to skim and easy to grade.)" (Habits of the Creative Mind, pg 16)
The way we learned to write in high school is not a practical form of writing for most platforms in the real world. Miller show us that in order to write better, we need to unlearn what we know about writing from high school in order to be ready for writing in a non high school environment.
