JMC 110. Professional Writing I: Style

Description:

"A writer is a person for whom writing is more difficult than it is for other people," said Thomas Mann.  That's because a writer appreciates just how important the act of writing is.  In JMC 110, you will learn to think like a writer.  Why does writing matter?  What does that really mean?  You will look at the relationship between art and craft, examine the importance of audience, and begin a conscious exploration of your own writing process.  You will also see why mechanics play a key role in articulating your ideas clearly.
