Always has been. Always will be.<\/p>\n<p>Now that we\u2019ve got that out of our systems, what can we do to make it better?<\/p>\n<p>While we talk a lot about what to write \u2014 More stories! Fewer words! Shorter sentences! \u2014 we don\u2019t focus so much on how.<\/p>\n<p>But if you\u2019ll break your writing time up into steps, you\u2019ll write better, easier and faster. Here\u2019s how &#8230;<\/p>\n<h3>Develop a good writing process.<\/h3>\n<p>Process is important: The way you write affects how well you write. As a writing trainer and coach, I can always tell when a writer has:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Written a story before organizing it<\/li>\n<li>Edited a story before writing it<\/li>\n<li>Failed to edit the story at all<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>I can tell when a writer writes by typing up her notes and moving them around in Microsoft Word \u2014 or when he sits with his nose in his notebook for too long.<\/p>\n<p>The writing process makes a huge difference in the quality of our copy. Problem is, most of us were taught a lousy writing process.<\/p>\n<h3>How we were taught to write<\/h3>\n<p>Writing is hard because we weren\u2019t taught to write, says Richard Andersen, author of <em>Writing That Works<\/em>. Instead, we were taught how to edit \u2014 how to spell, punctuate and use the right grammar.<\/p>\n<p>As a result, when we write, we try to do three things at once:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Think of what to write<\/li>\n<li>Write it down<\/li>\n<li>Get it right<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>How to write instead<\/h3>\n<p>Instead of trying to do all of this work at the same time, we need to take writing step by step. (Or <em>Bird by Bird<\/em>, for Anne Lamott aficionados.)<\/p>\n<p>The best writing process breaks writing up into discrete steps:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li><strong>Prewriting<\/strong>. Here\u2019s where you get ready to write. In this step, you <a href=\"https:\/\/revvingupreadership.com\/writing\/how-to-write-creative-content\/how-to-make-writing-more-descriptive\/research-description\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">conduct your research<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wyliecomm.com\/2022\/11\/angle-of-the-story\/\">find your story angle<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wyliecomm.com\/writing-tips\/how-to-organize-an-article\/\">organize your ideas<\/a>.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Freewriting<\/strong>. Write it down. Don\u2019t worry about grammar and spelling. Just get words on paper so you can revise them in the next step.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Rewriting<\/strong>. Here\u2019s where you polish your final product. Only now do you let the grammar police in.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h3>Both sides of the brain<\/h3>\n<p>The writing process is based on the theory that our brains are divided into two parts:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>The logical left side<\/strong>. This side of our brain thinks analytically from one point to the next like a computer, making sure we don\u2019t end our sentences in prepositions or use a colon when only a semicolon will do.<\/li>\n<li><strong>The creative right side<\/strong>. This side is impulsive and unconventional and gives our copy interest and energy.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Too often, we spend our writing time only on the logical left side of our brain. That\u2019s why too often we write it right \u2026 but we don\u2019t write anything that people want to read.<\/p>\n<h3>Why the three-step writing process?<\/h3>\n<p>The folks who study the writing process say that writers who divide their writing into discrete steps are:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Less likely to suffer from writer\u2019s block<\/li>\n<li>More likely to meet their deadlines<\/li>\n<li>Unlikely to get stressed out in the process<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>Put your effort at the top.<\/h3>\n<p>Most writers invest little time in the pre writing phase, focusing instead on fixing a lame draft in rewriting.<\/p>\n<p>Turn that investment upside down: Spend the bulk of your time getting ready to write, less time writing and the least time fixing what you wrote.<\/p>\n<p>The result: You\u2019ll soon be writing better, easier and faster.<br \/>\n___<\/p>\n<p>Source: Richard Andersen, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.amazon.com\/Writing-That-Works-Practical-Business\/dp\/0070016933\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><em>Writing That Works<\/em><\/a>, McGraw-Hill, 1989<\/p>\n<div id='MC-BEF-OVW' class='widgets_on_page wop_tiny1  wop_small1  wop_medium1  wop_large1  wop_wide1'>\n\t\t\t<ul><li id=\"custom_html-41\" class=\"widget_text widget widget_custom_html\"><div class=\"textwidget custom-html-widget\"><a title=\"Write Better, Easier and Faster - Ann Wylie's writing-process workshops\" href=\"https:\/\/www.wyliecomm.com\/corporate-communications-training\/writing-classes\/writing-process-workshop\/\" target=\"\" rel=\"noopener\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.wyliecomm.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/writing-process-training.png\" alt=\"Write Better, Easier and Faster - Ann Wylie's writing-process workshops\" title=\"Write Better, Easier and Faster - Ann Wylie's writing-process workshops\" width=\"auto\" height=\"auto\" border=\"0\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 250px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 250\/250;float:left; text-align:left; margin: 0 auto; margin-right: 10px; margin-top: 2px; margin-bottom: 10px; background-color: #ffffff; font-size: 18x; line-height: 22px; padding: 0px; color: #FFFFFF; max-width:100%; max-height:100%;\" class=\"img-max lazyload\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\"><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.wyliecomm.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/writing-process-training.png\" alt=\"Write Better, Easier and Faster - Ann Wylie's writing-process workshops\" title=\"Write Better, Easier and Faster - Ann Wylie's writing-process workshops\" width=\"auto\" height=\"auto\" border=\"0\" style=\"float:left; text-align:left; margin: 0 auto; margin-right: 10px; margin-top: 2px; margin-bottom: 10px; background-color: #ffffff; font-size: 18x; line-height: 22px; padding: 0px; color: #FFFFFF; max-width:100%; max-height:100%;\" class=\"img-max\"><\/noscript><\/a><h3>Work with \u2014 not against \u2014 your brain<\/h3>\r\n<p>While we talk a lot about what to write \u2014 More stories!
