The brain is truly the wonder of this world . . . Your mind already holds a variety of ideas about any subject you choose to write on. Of course, your memory, like a computer, will be only as good as what you put into it. No one learns or writes in a vacuum. But writing, as you know, is not plane geometry or biology or accounting.
Good writing makes a special contribution to success in college and on the job.
A significant part of any college education involves reading and writing, two primary means of sharing knowledge. Because modern life is so complicated, there are many barriers to full expression. The need to generate ideas can surface at any time while you are writing, drafting, revising, or editing. So, too, you can search for topics in the books and magazines that happen to be within easy reach. Solicit divine inspiration, if possible.
