@DrPaulineReid Also, revising our papers makes us even further critique our projects, making them that much better.

[Catherine MacCormick @cmaccormick]

@DrPaulineReid I think by not only doing the cover letter but also the letter of support, it ties in the revision of our project

[Catherine MacCormick @cmaccormick]

@DrPaulineReid I wonder: if people from classical times read a text message today/a letter in a casual format; what would they think?

[Catherine MacCormick @cmaccormick]

@DrPaulineReid I find it interesting to see how the"art of letter writing"/composition of written texts transforms overtime(medieval-modern)

[Catherine MacCormick @cmaccormick]

@DrPaulineReid "A full-fledged ars dictaminis, or art of letter writing, did not emerge until after 1000 C.E."

[Catherine MacCormick @cmaccormick]

@DrPaulineReid Do individuals perceive materials like this comic in a similar way that the writer is trying to portray/express?

[Catherine MacCormick @cmaccormick]

@DrPaulineReid interesting how people believe that there is a Moracco even if they've never been. goes against concept: seeing is believing

@DrPaulineReid "even the most widely traveled mind can only see so much of the world in a course of a life."

[Catherine MacCormick @cmaccormick]

@DrPaulineReid Does reading correlate to writing? Does it depend on what the content you're writing about is/gets creativity flowing?

[Catherine MacCormick @cmaccormick]

@DrPaulineReid Enjoyed Dylan's twist on his thoughts on writing& how it fits in his life.Main points express yourself, dare to be different

[Catherine MacCormick @cmaccormick]

@DrPaulineReid Interesting hearing about Ms.Manajek writing assignments anywhere from >30 words to 5,000+ (WIDE variety) takespractice/skill

[Catherine MacCormick @cmaccormick]

@DrPaulineReid Editing:one of the best skills.Peer editing can be an extensive process but is beneficial in long run; judgement vs criticism

[Catherine MacCormick @cmaccormick]

@DrPaulineReid Never know where you'll end up/which path you will take (career wise) example: Art History w/ writing (Kim Manajek)

[Catherine MacCormick @cmaccormick]

@DrPaulineReid Useful advice: staying in touch with publications/organizations opens up more opportunities, CONNECTIONS are key

[Catherine MacCormick @cmaccormick]

@DrPaulineReid Question: Regarding the railway reference it makes me think... Does every invention/creation have some kind of connection?

[Catherine MacCormick @cmaccormick]

@DrPaulineReid I like the railway reference and how the railway itself didn't introduce transportation but it opened up the idea(roads-city)

@DrPaulineReid Quote: "The meaning of a message is the change which it produces an image."
