Ava : A particular aspect of writing may be perceived as a construct simply due to the fact that the means by which that writing topic is defined is in itself a construct and apt to be contested, redefined or reinvented.

John: Writing, according to the book, can be defined as a construction. There are an unlimited ways that people use writing to express their ideas, thoughts, opinions, etc. Error is one idea that has no definite construct, but over time, due to people's different perspectives, society has made it to be a set of values. To one person, error might be a grammatical error, but to another it may be a "defective social behavior," according to Joseph Williams. The written language changes constantly and so does the construct of writing.
Tom: Construct is something that varies from person to person. Different people have different ways of writing construct. These differnet or varied ways of writing construct come from many things. One way can be how a person was taugh to construct thier writing. This could cause them to be more comfortable with one type of writing construct rather then how a new professor or a new boss would like it. Another way is from past experiences. For example, someone may have had trouble with one way of constructing their writing but then found a different way.
