Moving Personal Writing to Professional Writing
June 18, 2008 — LouIn my professional life, I hardly ever think about how I write. I have, however, learned certain skills by writing essays, letters, e-mails, presentations, and blog posts. My drafting process is made up of a series of small revisions. I choose the right words and formats. I add style to impress my audience.
I would ask to like readers to think about how they develop writing to be “professional”?
Reflecting on how you moved a casual quick write into a public piece, consider what changes you made and what skills you implemented?
- What did you do first?
- How did you know it was ready to post?
- What skills are required make writing publishable?
