Writing as a Second Language: From Experience to Story to Prose
Donald Davis
Building upon thousands of hours leading adults, teens, and children in personal story workshops, Davis points out that writing is not our first communications tool.
He argues that we must step back into our familiar "first" language -- the spoken word -- as our creative medium and learn to "translate" into that new foreign language called writing. With enough success, writing will eventually become a second -- instead of a foreign -- language.
