p.s.

even though i've loads of work to do today
i keep checking for posts and such instead

it's just that reading this scenario about "Greg" (no, not you Gregg) and his supposed writing assignments isn't really holding my interest. then there's theory to be consumed like stale bread. let's look at some, shall we?

from Berlin's "Contemporary Composition: The Major Pedagogical Theories"

"To teach writing is to argue for a version of reality, and the best way of knowing and communication it -- to deal, as Paul Kameen has pointed out, in the metarhetorical realm of epistemology and linguistics. And all composition teachers are ineluctably operating in this realm, whether or not they consciously choose to do so.”

oh. oh, yes. that’s quite right. and i’m just sure of it.
