What happens when I don't first write in a carefully formatted Word file.
My macular degeneration has taught me a great deal about what I long
suspected in the case of many apparently "illiterate" students who can't
write in complete sentences, or fill their papers with run-ons. There is
simply no necessary linkage between verbal ability (grammar, style,
coherence, organization) and writing.
Put it another way. It is in principle possible that someone with the
literary power of the Iliad Poet would (today) flunk freshman composition.
