For this post you will need to read "Poisonfish," found in this module as a PDF. I also suggest watching the "Poisonfish" video I've linked to in this module. Your Initial Post must have two components: the first section should create a definition of good writing that the authors of "Poisonfish" and "Grammar
Purity is a Ponzi Scheme" might agree with. Draw from the text, creating a definition of 50-100 words in length. I will be looking for at least one direct
quote from each reading.
The second half of the post should be your own definition of "good writing." What is the purpose of "good writing"? What does good writing look like? As a
writer and a reader, how do you know when writing is "working"? This portion of the post should be 200-300 words.
