Dear Daniel,                                                                                                                4/29/19

We are sorry to inform you that you are hereby being removed from Synergy Teams main team due to inactivity in the game. As stated on our page, we are looking for players who enjoy gaming and are consistently online. We strive to have a team where people can play and develop with one and other.  In our records you have participated in only 3 out of the previous 10 matches we had against competing teams. This lack of involvement has caused concern among the senior players in the clan. Due to your record in competitive matches we are placing you in the reserve team instead of removing you from the clan all together. As one of our experienced players, your job in the reserve team is to help train and guide our newer members through the basics of the game. These will include leading them through random matches, raids and basic strikes. Let us all continue to help one and other and rise through the ranks.

Sincerely,

Clan Founder and Leader Shawn

Donald Murray: Internal Revision: A Process of Discovery

  1. Murray defines writing as is that it is the process of using language to discover meaning in experience and to communicate it. Murray defines writing as rewriting and that there are steps to writing. The three steps he talks about are: Prevision, Vision, and revision. Purpose of writing is to rewrite continuously to improve in the process and to discover the importance of revision.
  2. Discovery in Murray’s words suggests as the important step in the process of writing and language and that the most significant step is made in writing when one enters into the writing process and experiences the discovery of meaning through writing. He also states that discovery is using language to find out what you are going to say. However, Murray states that this step is not explored or discovered enough because it has not been experienced by non-writers or admitted so when it is experienced by writers in the less imaginative forms of writing and also because most people are uncomfortable thinking about these types of questions. Murray suggests that the concept of ignorance is those who do not understand the use of language in the discovery process and not actually spend time rewriting because they are focused too much on solely the finished work.
  3. The product, as mentioned, is when writers focus solely on the finished piece of writing and not the actual process in rewriting and discovery using language to convey one’s message that one is trying to state. In addition, he states that this concept of the product instead of the process leads to dangerous misconceptions of writing. There are multiple ways to the process including internal and external revision as examples.
  4.  Internal revision is when the audience is one person, the author themselves and is the idea that writers are not concerned with correctness in any exterior case. Instead, the writers read what they have written so that they can deal with the questions of the subject, of adequate information, of structure, of form, of language. Internal Revision is when writers also read their own works to help discover where their content, form, language, and voice have led them. External revision, is what writers do to communicate to a larger audience about what they have found from what they have written. These writers now pay more attention to the conventions of form and language, mechanics, and style. In addition, they keep an eye on their audience and choose to appeal to them and read as an outsider for revision.

Facebook book is probably one of the most popular, and used social media out there. If I were to remember a couple years back, that time period is when I had used Facebook the most. However as of today I don’t see Facebook the same way as I use to. The reason for this is due to the rapid change, and friends. Majority of my friends left Facebook because there are a lot more better social media, and etc. Facebook back then aloud me to post all sorts of goofy stuff, so it’s also part of the fact that I am now an adult with more responsibilities. Now that I’m getting older, I began to realize that the older adults, friends, and relatives that I’m close with are adding posts, and a few pictures on their Facebook account. The older ones only post because they want to update the ones that they also know best in their life, unlike kids they have the audacity to post things even though they know that the friends they have on Facebook are complete strangers. My purpose for posting on Facebook is blurred, but adults older than not so much.

“Myspace Outage Leaves Millions Friendless.” Is my favorite.

I rarely have rules with me whenever I’m writing, but If I was to think of one it would be to have some sort of a attention grabber. I struggle the most with poems. Writing poems is like telling me to solve a triple digit multiplication problem without a calculator.

Navigating Genres by: Kerry Dirk

1). This article (though somewhat old) mentions Facebook posts as a kind of genre. Can you briefly describe how comfortable you feel composing a piece of writing in this genre? Do you feel more comfortable than someone much older than you — your Grandmother, for instance? Why do you think this older person might not write as well in Facebook as you do? What are some of the mistakes they might make?

I post to Facebook (FB) all the time and I am very comfortable doing so. I also write blogs and comments very regularly.

I wouldn’t say that I feel more comfortable than someone older than me, as I encounter many people much older than me on FB all the time – I actually find them to be much more clever, witty and very funny with their comments.

2) Dirk gives a few examples of titles in The Onion (a newspaper that was founded in 1988 at a college, btw). What was your favorite title?

My favorite title from the examples that Dirk gave from the list of titles from The Onion is: “Archaeological Dig Uncovers Ancient Race of Skeleton People”.

3) On page 258, Dirk describes the rules we carry around in our head before we start writing in a particular genre. What are some of the rules you carry around in your head? Is there a particular genre in which you struggle to write?

Some of the rules I carry around in my head are: commas are meant to be used to fragment run-on sentences or to give readers a chance to breath when reading out loud, a paragraph doesn’t need to be indented anymore, writing must have good structures – a beginning, middle and an end, and the conclusion should sum-up what you just wrote about; to name a few.

I find that I am having a rough time writing my scientific papers. I tend to write narratively and research papers are meant to be written by stating the facts and being very objective – straight to the point with as few words possible.
