3). Pick one concept from the assigned reading that you found useful or interesting and discuss it.

Chapter 10 talked a lot about the use of language. I really appreciated this chapter because of its ideas for making a speech effective, personal and audience appropriate.My favorite part was when it discussed the differences between the written language and spoken word. I agree that there can be a difference, however, being a writer myself i feel that effective writing should be able to be jsut as effective as the spoken word, and just as vibrant. There is a type of speech for every occasion, as there is a type of written text about every occasion.
I found the distinctions they made interesting none-the less, and plan on using things such as rhythm and in-the-now context to bring my speeches to a new and current resource.
