W WRITE ON! Imagine yourself seated in your En- glish class, minding your own business. Suddenly you return from dreamland and realize that your teacher has made an assignment. Write an essay, your teacher says. No problem, you say. So you begin to write. lt's clear, itis concise, it's excellent, and it'sjust flow- ing from your pen. You're ready to start the concluding paragraph when some- one asks the teacher, Can I turn in my five pages now'?!' The teacher nods, but you aren't nearly as calm. Five pages'?! You barely have three! What should you do? We've all had problems similar to this, some more than others. We some- times try to cover up the brevity of our reports and compositions by writing words as largely stretched out as possi- ble. We also repeat ourselves, changing words and sentence structure to make it look like we're not really desperate. Writing is the most vital ingredient in journalism. Without writing, The For- ester would be a bundle of blank pages. But that's obvious, a newspaper isn't possible without writing. ln fact, nei- ther would this story, be so grateful! The Forester is, as you know, our school newspaper. The people who put this paper together are trained to write clearly and creatively. But it doesn't always come naturally or easily to these writers. They need a little confidence builder every once in a while, too. So next time you read the school newspaper, grab the nearest For- ester staff member, slap them on the back, and thank them for a job well done. academics
