Lesson 3

This section of the book talks about the usage of verbs/actions, subjects and clarity. When writing you have to make sure that what you are trying to say is clear, direct and to the point. Referring back to class discussions every draft or piece of writing may seem clear to the writer but as a reader it may be unclear. In this lesson it talks about this as well. Williams suggest that we all read into our own writing what we want readers to get out of it. One of the reasons being is because as a writer you know the message you are trying to convey so you fill your page with your own ideas and thoughts about a particular topic or subject. Again, being clear about your topic is important especially for your audience.
