Read Ong's "Writing is a Technology that Restructures Human Thought".
Emitting words is not really what "writing" is.

- tptacek 14d agoWhat is this comment responding to? I don't think anybody in this thread, or the article itself, believes "emitting words" is what writing is?
- devin 13d agoIt may not have been responding to anyone in particular, to be honest with you. I think it's important that people remember that a big chunk of what writing is, is the time spent thinking about the topic you're writing about. People take writing for granted. They forget that it is a technology itself.
