week three

The letters written to the officials of the Shanandoah national park is a form of writing. It may not be formal or published, but it is still a form of writing making the authors "writers". The letters were pleas of help from the occupants that were never answered. The letters had feelings and emotions in them, making them powerful. The letters may have been neglected, but that doesn't make them invisible. The were written words in forms of sentences that expressed feeling which, in my eyes, makes them writers.  There was obvious lack of knowledge of proper grammar and vocabulary, but that doesn't mean they couldn't express themselves any less. There was a profound powerful expressions of anger within the letters that were clearly evident. To me, they were writers and should be recognized as so.
