Writing & Grammar 9
by Elizabeth Rose Dawn L. Watkins Denise L. Patton Dana Gibby GagePeople study language for a variety of reasons. Some study in order to secure a job that pays better; some study to make good grades or to impress others with their vocabulary and knowledge. Some may actually study grammar and mechanics for the fun of it! You might ask yourself whether those reasons are good ones. Why should a Christian study the English language? Christians should study language and any other subject seriously because of Who God is. Just think about the fact that the God of the universe used language to bring the world into existence (Gen. 1:3)! God created every man and woman in His own image, and He called mankind to exercise dominion over the earth. Exercising dominion is accomplished in part through man's use of language (Gen. 1:28; 2:19-20). Perhaps the most exciting aspect of English study is the part language plays in God's plan to redeem the world to Himself (John 1:1-18). Part of that plan could be for Christians to use language for redemptive purposes. One example of such a redemptive purpose might be writing a play that confronts an audience with a distinctively Christian way to handle conflict. Blogging from a biblical worldview about issues facing the culture would be another example.

Writing Alone and With Others
by Peter Elbow Pat SchneiderFor more than a quarter of a century, Pat Schneider has helped writers find and liberate their true voices. She has taught all kinds--the award winning, the struggling, and those who have been silenced by poverty and hardship. Her innovative methods have worked in classrooms from elementary to graduate level, in jail cells and public housing projects, in convents and seminaries, in youth at-risk programs, and with groups of the terminally ill. Now, in Writing Alone and with Others, Schneider's acclaimed methods are available in a single, well-organized, and highly readable volume. The first part of the book guides the reader through the perils of the solitary writing life: fear, writer's block, and the bad habits of the internal critic. In the second section, Schneider describes the Amherst Writers and Artists workshop method, widely used across the U. S. and abroad. Chapters on fiction and poetry address matters of technique and point to further resources, while more than a hundred writing exercises offer specific ways to jumpstart the blocked and stretch the rut-stuck. Schneider's innovative teaching method will refresh the experienced writer and encourage the beginner. Her book is the essential owner's manual for the writer's voice.
