How Economics Faculty Developed a New Plan for Teaching Writing
All writers are learning, and with every word put to page we understand our writing process a little better. Witnessing other people’s writing processes through the Howe Center – as both a consultant and a consulted writer – helped me challenge my own way of doing things and adopt new writing practices.

Don't be afraid to make yourself uncomfortable, whether that be by trying a new writing process, writing in a new style or voice, exploring an unfamiliar idea, or letting other people read your work. The more you try, the more you'll learn about yourself as a writer. Everybody is a writer with different skill sets and levels of experience.
