Writing Strategies
If someone wants to write something and he/she wants to make a perfect piece of writing , he/she has to know the proces of writing. Not all writers write in the same way, but experienced writers can point to particular elements that generally accur in the act of writing, even though these elements may be combined in different ways. Robert Scholes ans nancy R. Comley (1985:10) said that three phases in the proces of writing. They are: a. Prewriting, the most productive way to begin your writing task is to
collect your thoughts on paper without the presure of structurring your
experission inti its final form. Prewriting is your chance practice what
you have to say begin to worry how your audience will judge the
eventual form of your work. The writer must begin by chosing a
subject to write about. It means making a list to potential subjects. It
purposes to narrow the focus, to discover the limits that wall allow
working productively ( Robert scholes and nancy R.Comley,1985:16-
18)
b. Drafting, drafting is the point at which you begin to put youe ideas in
some kind or order and to invision a potential shape for the work your
will produce: a beginning, a middle, and an end. Before begin
drafting, some writers make an outline to remid themselves of how
they wish to order their ideas ( Robert scholes and nancy
R.Comley,1985:18-19).
c. Revising, the writers should revise after drafting, because to revise
their writing is important if they want to be a professional writer. “It is
an advantage writerd call all have if they revise and rewrite before
they present their work to the reader. The professional writer’s secret
is revision and revision and revision”( Robert scholes and nancy
R.Comley,1985:19).
In the other hand, Fred D. White (1986:32) said that thre are five stages of proces of writing. Thre are: a) Invent. To discover a topic, the important details about the topic, and what a writer mainly want to say about it.b) Gather and plan. Retrieve details about the topic from a writer’s memory or from background reading. c) Organize and autline. Map out a writer’s idea in terms og begining, middle, and end; device a working (trial) outline to maintain ciherence and thorough development. d) Write a first draft. Develop your idea, concetrating more on content than on style or correctness. e) Revise. Rework your draft to improve accuracy,
readability, and development. Revision can take place whenever your want it to, but the most efficient time for it to occur is after you have completed a preliminary draft.
