Writing Topic: Rules for Writers Chapter 1

When in the process of writing, create ideas. Ask yourself what is interesting or concerning about these ideas that intrigues you. Next would be to assess the situation. Figure out the subject and the questions that needs to be explored that obtains to the subject. Understand the source of information whether that is from literature or personal experience. If it is from personal experience, find out what so interesting about the experience that will capture the audience. The audience should care about what is being said, that will help you to pinpoint the purpose of the paper.

The subject should be examined. Pick someones brain to get their feedback on your subject. Converse with them about your ideas and listen to what they have to say. That along with brainstorming will help you to create a main point. When a key point is composed, ask the question, is it enough for an essay. Is their enough supporting evidence to back up your main point. Generate an outline to help organize the essay.

I will use this writing process by having a conversation with people when finding ideas to write about. I think it's a great idea to get other peoples opinion on the subject before I allow that subject to be set in stone. I plan on asking questions and set a plan in regards to my subject before I start my rough draft. I tend to just go ahead and have at it and I've learned that my writing will be all over the place. Having a formal outline sketched out before my draft will keep my work organized and have it flow just right.
