Again, I neglect writing.

Writing-- it's a skill just like anything else. Not everyone is magically born scripturient-- to have that consuming calling to write. Even so, writing is just as much an integral part of our academically-oriented lives as other skills such as reading and presenting. Yet, the emphasis is often placed on areas other than the art of penmanship. Why is it so?

Even then, with the onus having been placed on ourselves alone, time and time again, it is so easy to neglect brushing up on our ability to weave words into impeccable sentences and paragraphs owing to our supposedly always-busy lifestyle. What, exactly, are we busying ourselves on, that we can neglect developing something so fundamental to us?
