Drawing on the results of three decades of research into the composing processes of writers, most writing instructors now emphasize the how of writing. While theorists such as Lester Faigley and Susan Miller have pointed out the limitations of trying to define systematically what happens when a writer sits down to compose a work, most writing teachers and their students have effectively adapted a focus on the processes through which students generate and revise their writing, rather than focusing solely on a final product. This book is designed to support that focus on the hows of writing.
Most writers agree that at least three components contribute to the processes they use most of the time: prewriting, the finding and exploring of ideas and the construction of plans for expressing them (in classical terminology, invention); drafting, getting the ideas down on paper and generating sentences about them; and revising, reconsidering the ideas, the treatment they receive, the plans for expressing them, and the ways they are expressed (in classical terminology, arrangement, style, and to some extent, delivery).
