One element in Murray’s “The Maker’s Eye” is, “In the following essay, first published in the Writer in October 1973 and later revised for this text, Murray discusses the importance of revision to the work of the writer. Most professional writers live by the maxim that “writing is rewriting.” And to rewrite or revise effectively, we need to become better readers of our own work, open to discovering new meanings, and sensitive to our use of language. Murray draws on the experiences of many writers to make a compelling argument for careful revising and editing.” I chose this element because it’ll benefit my writing in the best way. Definitely using the notion that “writing it rewriting” can bring the best out of a writer’s ability such as myself. I have always been told to reread what I write that way there are some minor revisions I can make to improve on the meaning and use of the language provided. Professor Hall’s acronym PIE can great use to me because I can organize my paragraphs.
