Prompt: What are the big takeaways from chapter 13?  In a full journal entry, help explain the significance of what you found important and what you connected with in the chapter. (150-200 words).

The focus of Chapter 13 was to better explain how to make proper outlines for use with speeches. The chapter begins by suggesting the use of two kinds of outlines: A working outline and a speaking outline. The intended use of the two varying outlines would be to have one for formatting the speech and another for how it’d be spoken. It then gives an example on the outline process, suggesting a process for making these outlines in an efficient manner. It also suggests multiple differing ways one might write these outlines, utilizing either a sentence, phrase, or key-word methods to write your outline. It then shows a multitude of examples on how you can write your outlines using the methods previously listed. I personally found this helpful as the clarification on how to make a proper speaking outline will allow me to perform better in the future. I previously only ever utilized my working outline and would try to adapt it into something similar to a speaking outline when needed.
