Motivated
to Write!
“… young people are reading
and writing more than I ever
did at their age, but they are
doing it using their computers
and mobile phones … The
mobile is central, and will
become even more so as time
goes by.” - David Crystal

Put it before them briefly
so they will read it, clearly
so they will appreciate it,
picturesquely so they will
remember it and, above
all, accurately so they will
be guided by its light.
