Writing is hard, pure and simple. Talking to each other, chatting online, or even writing a letter are merely our simple ways of communicating with each other. But, to go beyond and truly write, espeically formal writing, is like practicing a craft. With this in mind, trades are difficult and take practice and as such starting the process is the hardest part. I find the best way to start writing is just to write on paper and get words out. It doesn't matter if it's right or wrong, that part comes later, but was does matter is that thoughts are being recorded and the creative writing process starts. Eventually, you will get a feel for what you want to write and you can expand upon that, just by wrting down a few sentences, statements, or ideas on paper. For the best writers are the best between the transittion between the mind and the paper. ~ M. Nowell | Writing is hard, pure and simple.

- Your paper was excellent! You included lots of information ( some that I could use) and stayed on point. You went through each step and made every one of your points understandable.
I liked the flow of your essasy. Your examples stood out. You definitely made me want to finish reading your paper.
Be sure to proofread. I see a couple of typos. Be sure to use wiki format when you need it; see your numbered list. Also, some of the other wiki entries in the FAQ should be linked off of your entry: this is a must for a solid wiki entry. Your parenthetical citations should be included in the sentence; i.e., they come before the periods.
Generally well written: clear, with only a few of those wordy problems. I think the entry needs a bit more: I do not feel as if it's clear or focused enough. You should introduce the various sections more thoroughly, perhaps. More references also could have helped your entry.
