enstruction

I remember when I first learnt how to properly structure an essay. I'd always had the idea that writing well was a kind of direct expression. It's a matter of translating the ideas in your head into writing, and they're in the correct format already in your head. But when I learnt about structure and started to write well-structured essays, I realized that my ideas don't come already structured. It is a kind of translation but it's not easy or perfunctory. It really involves a reworking.
