Writing alters our consciousness and perspective on the world by allowing us to objectify language and view it as an object to be examined. Writing makes language an affair of the eye rather than the ear. Visual consciousness tends to be linear, distant, individual, analytic. Written word becomes an object to be manipulated, altered and corrected. We can take a second look at words. You can reread to understand - with speaking you have to ask can you repeat that? .
