- "manic writing" was the topic of Catharine Sedgwick's essay
in 1835. It is also a state that Jo gets in when she is in her garret. While writing she
wears a pennefore and hat with a red bow. the bows location on the hat indicates her
writing mode and mood, one of which is a fury of idea and creativity or "cacoethes
scribiendi". the garret is a place where her ideas are free to manicly escape onto paper
without interruption.
