10 Across: Mock Fanfare (4-letters)

Let's make this short and sweet. Over the course of the semester, I hope to:

1. Foster an awareness of my writing, which will allow me to be more conscious in my style choices.
2. Experiment with several approaches to and ways to describe my text to evaluate my rhetorical style.
3. Open my posts to questions and criticisms of any sort. This I see as the primary goal of this blog, as feedback the feedback will inform my writing style and experimentation. I love feedback!
4. Use this blog as a motivational tool. In order to accomplish the first three goals, I shall need to work proactively at this project. No procrastination here!

Thank you ladies and gentlemen. I think it's going to be a great semester!
