This is a very interesting and informative article for this class. I totally relate to the trance state of "paper", especially when it is fiction. It puts me to sleep every night, unlike the association of "boring textbooks", which actually keep me wide awake!

So "Moby Dick" is now a spa? Great, because I have a copy of "Moby Dick" and so now can enjoy the spa experience that I could never afford!
ReplyDeleteMelody, thank you for sharing this great article. I enjoyed the "hungry hunter" metaphor!
I also appreciate the author's emphasis on brevity. A good editor SHOULD be able to eliminate 40% of text, but so many online aren't good editors!
I hope to apply these ideas to my own blog. That way, you won't want to read my blog to go to sleep every night!
