- “That difference in attitude is the difference between amateur and professional, inexperience and experience, journeyman and craftsman. Peter F. Drucker, the prolific business writer, calls his first draft “the zero draft”–after that he can start counting. ” This is something very important that caught my eye, experience comes with the way someone is reviewing their own work. Sometimes when you submit a paper and you read it before submitting it sounds like you could have done better, and that’s when reviewing and rewriting comes in.
- .”Writers must learn to be their own best enemy. They must accept the criticism of others and be suspicious of it; they must accept the praise of others and be even more suspicious of it. Writers cannot depend on others. They must detach themselves from their own pages so that they can apply both their caring and their craft to their own work. ” In my opinion, if you accept criticism from others and especially those who have more experience in the English language you’ll be open to improving your work. Being one owns the greatest judge in writing is something that is essential when it comes to revision.
- “Most people think that the principal problem is that writers are too proud of what they have written. Actually, a greater problem for most professional writers is one shared by the majority of students. They are overly critical, think everything is dreadful, tear up page after page, never complete a draft, see the task as hopeless.” The writer must learn and value one’s writing and form of portraying. But writers must never give up and think that the task is always possible. A side note, is I always take breaks when I’m writing. Once you’re tired of writing, take a break and come back when your mind and eyes have been refreshed.
