The Quotes I picked because i can somehow relate to them, as well as my process of doing things. Quotes. Teach Writing As a Process Not a Product 1) "It is the process of exploration of what we should know and what we feel about what we know through language. It is the process of using language to learn about our world, to evaluate what we learn about our world, to communicate what we learn about our world."_(Murray 2) 2) "Writing is the act of producing a first draft. It is the fastest part of the process, and the most frightening, for it is a commitment. When you complete a draft you know how much, and how little, you know. And the writing of this first draft—rough, searching, unfinished—may take as little as one percent of the writer’s time." (Murray 3) 3) " It is important to the writer, once he has discovered what he has to say, that nothing get between him and his reader" (Murray 5) The Daily Writing Routines of Great Writers 1) "I never have to worry about schedules. Some new thing is always exploding in me, and it schedules me, I don’t schedule it. It says: Get to the typewriter right now and finish this."_Ray Bradbury 2) "I never listen to music when I’m working. I haven’t that kind of attentiveness, and I wouldn’t like it at all."_E. B. White 3) "If the work is going well, I spend a quarter or half an hour reading what I wrote the day before, and I make a few corrections. Then I continue from there."_Simone de Beauvoir Bird by Bird: Some Instructions on Writing and Life 1) "You don't have to see your destination or everything you will pass along the way you just have to see two or three feet ahead of you. This is right up there with the best advice about writing" (Lamott 4) 2) "The right words and sentences just do not come pouring out like ticker tape most of the time." (Lamott 5) 3) "I'd start writing without reining myself in. It was almost just typing, just making my fingers move. And the writing would be terrible" (Lamott 7) My Process 1) "Don't be worried about raising the expectations of your writing and fail reaching it, Worry about setting low ones and succeed reaching them" 2) "Make reaching perfection your goal as a writer, but also know that you'll never reach that goal" 3) "Never start out without expecting some negative feedback" Introduction
