Unlimiting Writers' Agency And Alleviating Writer's Block, Cassundra Lynett Flemister-White
Unlimiting Writers' Agency And Alleviating Writer's Block, Cassundra Lynett Flemister-White
Theses Digitization Project
This thesis examines two causes of writer's block developed during the revision stage of the composing process: instructors' unexplained notations and unwanted voice alterations within students' texts. The study examines the emotions students experience caused by instructors' actions which Nelson and Rose say contribute to temporary and even permanent cases of writer's block. After exemplifying the connection between emotions and writer's block, the remainder of the study focuses on finding solutions to these causes of writer's block. As a result of my research, I discovered the primary solution is communication between instructors and students.
