Writing Practices (In-Class Blog Week 6)

I believe writing in itself is an individual practice. This is because when someone writes they are usually writing about something they have come up with and no one else has. It could be just writing a story from their own imagination or writing about a life experience they had and no else experienced. So looking at it from this perspective it is an individual effort. In other cases there are people who create a story together as a social practice. A lot of this writing comes from thought of an individual or individuals. So either way it can be classified as an individual or social practice. Another way to look at it is people all over the world write so it can be classified as a social practice since the whole worl.d writes, its a social hobby of everyones. At least everyone who can write. My personal take on it is that it is an individual practice because when I write no one else is feeding me ideas, it's just my imagination, life experiences and I.
