I am doing exactly the same thing today, venturing into new blogs and marveling at the way in which so many writers participate in the "offering of themselves by showing their space through a slice."

I have enjoyed the span of posts that are written everyday...as you said...all types of emotions felt...from prose to all types of poetry. The feedback has been like the icing as it encourages me to write another post because...there are some people out there who have really read what I have written.

Since last March, I have looked at student feedback under a very different lens. <br />When I challenged my grad students to write, they looked at me like I was crazy....but they did...and their understanding of writing has grown to a level I could never have imagined. As Donald Graves noted long ago, we need real purposes and audiences to write.....thanks to the TWT, we now all REALLY know what he meant! drferreriblogspot.comhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08800953133789773280noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2232396492371281821.post-86503373782862541652013-03-23T06:45:25.453-04:002013-03-23T06:45:25.453-04:00The feedback has been an incredible experience for...The feedback has been an incredible experience for me during these three weeks and I will think differently about Writer's Workshop because of it.
