I think that Anne Lamont's advice in the reading is understandably right for me. Sometimes you just have to get what you're thinking out on paper to help you realize that either you are on the right track or you need to completely change your direction. Another thing about getting out on paper is that you can begin to re-arrange the ideas so that they do become coherent.
This advice at times is similar to my drafting style when I just can't function mentally, I just get it out on paper so that I can have something to work with.
In the Student A's essay on the TV article I was confused at first by the 1st body paragraph in that I wasn't sure if the student was arguing for or against Johnson's ideas in how the student's last sentence ended. The student however does a good job later in clarifying the argument, being against Johnson's approach.
Just on a personal note on the essay- I don't agree with the student that It's OK for adults to watch the kind of things he mentions as it still has a pull on them even if they think they 'know' or are 'above' it.
Have a great day!
