Summary: The experience I had writing my first college essay helped shape this book. I received a C for the essay. Scrawled beside the grade was the comment Not badly written, but ill-conceived. I remember going to the instructor after class, asking about his comment as well as the word Log that he had added in the margin at various spots. What are all these logs you put in my paper? I asked, trying to make a joke of it. He looked at me a little wonderingly.
