Thlog #5

As we write about Zacks comments, I appreciated the questions being asked because instead of getting commented (good point or a little confusing) because it begins a new thinking process that never occurred to me as the writer. I realized that since i have a tight and limited space i can afford to fluff but instead to analyze more and effectively describe why do all the words i'm writing done even matter. We then analyzed the concept happiness, everyone has their own conceptual definitions of happiness thus it's very important to distinguish them from operational definitions.

In class on Wednesday we began with defining what moves means and how we represent it in real life. I noticed that the more specific we got to the words function in the phrase or sentence can change the reader's perspective but author's tone. For example “this song moves me” can mean stirring someone's emotions. This connects with writing because authors have moves within their writing pieces and once people can identify a writer's moves helps the reader better understand purpose and how well it's executed. What i observed in the wwe activity was that everyone is not the same, and as the observer it's important to recognize anming unique “moves” that people do or say in order to evaluate the sequence of patterns. This ultimately creates the reader a better critique. Anything can be a move as long as some can articulate the WHY?

I never emphasized the WHY when i was assigned readings, just read for the information that i was expected to understand. But in reality if i would have analyzed why a writer writes a certain way, it could have helped make the readings easier to follow and grasp. I really applies everywhere because for example my friend always starts singing when she's about to jump into the shower. It can be named the “beyonce shower tribute” and be her move. By her singing, it lets everyone in the apt that she'll be in the shower for ten minutes, simply notifying us the “audience” this is the same with writer, they make moves for a reason and it's the readers duty to acknowledge them.
