Writing is perhaps the highest form of communication that humans have developed.
From the complex structure of computer languages, to the early remnants of hand imprints in caves, and the philosophical discussions in ancient Greece about public oratory vs. written record, writing has earned the top spot in many modern languages.
Writing is one of the last skills that English Learners master on their way to achieving language fluency and one of the first skills that are assessed in a student's progress.
It is a record that we create set to withstand the test of time.
It is written, proof read, edited, rewritten, and published as a final word.
It is open to challenge and criticism, to redaction and correction.
It is used as a source to inspire and create more writing.
It is poems, books, scrolls and scribbles that express thought and emotion.
Writing challenges the writer to conquer the dreaded writer's block.
