Writing+perspective

Writing is a process in the sense that it involves thinking, feeling, talking, reading and writing. It is an extended effort to make a message clear. A ‘one shot’ draft can seldom achieve this. A writer needs time and opportunity to think about what is written, to make decisions about the writing before, during and after drafting and the revise effectively so that the piece can be shaped and confidently presented to the intended reader with expectation of a positive response.
