Final Site Report

We must and do write each our own way.

--Eudora Welty
novelist and essayist

I don't see writing as communication of something already discovered, as "truths" already known. Rather, I see writing as a job of experiment. It's like any discovery job; you don't know what's going to happen until you try it.

William Stafford
teacher, poet, and essayist

The writer may write to inform, to explain, to entertain, and to persuade, but whatever the purpose there should be first of all, the satisfaction of the writer's own learning.

Donald Murray
teacher and
pulitzer prize-winning journalist
