Abstract
Writing is more than words on paper. It is the representation of ideas, experiences, stories - a representation of the world. Until the writer and reader give meaning to the symbols represented, writing is just scribbles on the page. To be re-presented means the writer has understood and given meaning to the thought or experience, and wants to make that meaning known to others now.
