"What's needed for being a good writer?"According to Ernest Hemingway, "crap detecting skills" (Hobbs 35).
Howard Rheingold, the author of Net Smart: How to Thrive Online, has actually broken this idea down into a teaching model: C.R.A.P.
C- currency
R- reliability
A- authority
P- purpose/point of view
