Document Summary

Think of writing as recursive and flexible. Recursive: repeated applications or attempts; circling back to rethink, revise, and rewrite. Flexible: a non-linear process; openness to creativity and alternative solutions. Dialectical process: involves both creative thinking (discovery, inquiry, invention) and. The act of writing is an active, dynamic, and recursive process whereas the written text generally lies still and behaves itself. The act of writing and the product of writing are different entities. Writing and the imposition of order: writing actively imposes order on ideas and creates structure. The written text is already ordered and reflects decisions already made. That final form was not perfectly formed, but the result of a dynamic, active writing process. The final product hides the messiness and the labour involved in the writing process. Writing and recursivity: ideas and insights that arise during writing do not necessarily emerge in a coherent, logical, or linear fashion.
