Jessica on Writing

"In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God...In Him was life, and the life was the light of men." John 1:1

Humans are innately communicative beings who find fulfillment in expressing their minds and passions in a variety of forms. The most universal and uniquely human form of expression is language. While not everyone is naturally gifted at putting their thoughts into words, it is a skill that can be acquired and tuned with training and practice. Like all forms of expression, writing can be laborious at times, however the fruit that is borne at harvest is sweet, nourishing and rewarding to the one who takes the time to plant it. The writing center is here to help you in that process.
