How To Write Anything: The Format Of What You Write May Change But The Process Of Writing Anything Remains The Same (ePub)

When it comes to How To Write Anything, the thinking, exercises, and techniques presented in this book are for people who want to write, no matter what they want to write.

"Are you sure about fiction?" I hear you ask.

While the focus of this book is on writing non-fiction, the process spelled out here is applicable for writing fiction. In fact, there are sections in the book explicitly for fiction writers.

"Any non-fiction?" you may ask.

Absolutely. It does not matter the style you use or the type of document that you need to produce. For instance, you might write in an expository style, a style in which your purpose is used to inform or explain. You might write in a persuasive manner, state your opinion, and attempt to influence the reader. You might write in narrative style or write creative non-fiction. Or your writing may be descriptive, writing that uses the five senses to paint a picture for the reader. No matter the style, this book will work for you.

No matter the type of document, How to Write Anything outlines the process you follow to eliminate the blank page and outline your document before you write. You will know what it is you want to write before you start the formal process of writing. In other words, this book will get you to the point where it is all over but the writing by showing you how to create a detailed and logical outline of any document that you want to write.

Following the process spelled out here will make you a more effective and efficient writer.
