still agree, this does not encompass the character of others, which is a
common concept in writing. Just as the world cannot be labeled a
human planet, just because that is one of the main attributes, writing
cannot be limited to one of its many concepts, but I feel as though my
current theory covers a significantly large variety of the meaning of
writing. Also along with the definition of writing, I feel as though my focus
on rhetorical situation was misplaced. Of course it has a rather crucial role
in writing as a whole, but in previous theories, and even in my map of key
terms, I constantly tried to find a place for it because I valued it as
something that was foreign and important, so I tried to make all my
conclusions based off that one idea, which made both my theories and
understanding of writing narrow-minded.
Ironically, knowledge that I have gained outside of the class has
helped me to develop my theory of writing the most. Especially in doing
research that connects my major to writing, discovering those
connections to the outside world allowed me to gain a broader
knowledge of writing, that was not limited to rhetorical or literary terms or
concepts. I found that my theory became the most accurate after
thinking of the writing that I completed in my sociology class that deals
with family problems and social change. In that class, we wrote a paper in
which we connected the concepts learned in class to our own families,
and while writing that paper I found that when I was writing, I was

to sculpt and incorporate ideas that make it their own. My theory comes
from my experiences and the things that I have encountered through
various forms of writing and what I believe writing to be from the
combination of what I have learned in this class, and from the world
around me. It becomes obvious to me from looking at my previous ideas
that they all lead to this point, that as I came along my idea become
more and more specific, until finally I found a definition that I felt
encompassed the most knowledge about writing that I understand and
have been able to identify. As a writer, I have always wanted someone to
teach me how to communicate my ideas in the most effective way, to
mold my writing so that it can be of the most exemplary caliber possible,
but now I understand that it is my interpretation that is important, sure
different assignments call for different styles of that interpretation, but the
starting and finishing point comes from what I as a reader and writer have
gained from the text of another.
