how to write anything in file: How To Write Anything: The Format Of What You Write May Change But The Process Of Writing Anything Remains The Same Paul Lima, 2020-07-06 How To Write Anything: The Format Of What You Write May Change But The Process Of Writing Anything Remains The Same This book is called How To Write Anything, and I confess there is some ego involved in the title. But then I've been a professional writer for over 40 years. As one of Canada's most successful writers and authors, I have written hard news articles, soft news and feature articles, advertising and promotional copy, media releases, reports and proposals, case studies, research papers, email messages, website content, tweets, blog posts, and other online content. I have also written over 20 books on business, promotional and online writing and other topics, such as writing articles, memoir writing and living with Multiple Sclerosis, a disease that I have, but one that has not prevented me from writing or training. I've also written a collection of short stories, poetry, and a couple of plays. So while I haven't written everything, I've written many things. The fact is that you can't read this book and go forth and write anything if you are not familiar with the format or structure of the document that you want to write--be it non-fiction or fiction. For instance, if you want to write a report, you do so using the methods in this book. However, you have to know how to structure reports. The same is applicable to email, social media content, articles, promotional content, case studies, reports, white papers, PowerPoint presentations, speeches, website content, short stories or novels. So some of you reading this book might still have some learning to do. However, I suspect most of you know the structure of the documents you want to produce and you will be able to immediately apply the methods outlined in the book to writing any document that you need to write. |

how to write anything in file: How We Write Suzanne Conklin Akbari, 2015 This little book arose spontaneously, in the late spring of 2015, when a series of conversations emerged -- first in a university roundtable on graduate student dissertation-writing, and then in a rapidly proliferating series of blog posts -- on the topic of how we write. One commentary generated another, each one characterized by enormous speed, eloquence, and emotional forthrightness. This collection is not about how TO write, but how WE write: unlike a prescriptive manual that promises to unlock the secret to efficient productivity, the contributors talk about their own writing processes, in all their messy, frustrated, exuberant, and awkward dis/order. The contributors range from graduate students and recent PhDs to senior scholars working in the fields of medieval studies, art history, English literature, poetics, early modern studies, musicology, and geography. All are engaged in academic writing, but some of the contributors also publish in other genres, includes poetry and fiction. Several contributors maintain a very active online presence, including blogs and websites; all are committed to strengthening the bonds of community, both in person and online, which helps to explain the effervescent sense of collegiality that pervades the volume, creating linkages across essays and extending outward into the wide world of writers and readers. Contributors include: Michael Collins, Suzanne Conklin Akbari, Alexandra Gillespie, Alice Hutton Sharp, Asa Simon Mittman, Jeffrey Jerome Cohen, Maura Nolan, Richard H. Godden, Bruce Holsinger, Stuart Elden, Derek Gregory, Steve Mentz, and Dan Kline. |
how to write anything in file: Extra Life Steven Johnson, 2021-05-11 “Offers a useful reminder of the role of modern science in fundamentally transforming all of our lives.” —President Barack Obama (on Twitter) “An important book.” —Steven Pinker, The New York Times Book Review The surprising and important story of how humans gained what amounts to an extra life, from the bestselling author of How We Got to Now and Where Good Ideas Come From In 1920, at the end of the last major pandemic, global life expectancy was just over forty years. Today, in many parts of the world, human beings can expect to live more than eighty years. As a species we have doubled our life expectancy in just one century. There are few measures of human progress more astonishing than this increased longevity. Extra Life is Steven Johnson’s attempt to understand where that progress came from, telling the epic story of one of humanity’s greatest achievements. How many of those extra years came from vaccines, or the decrease in famines, or seatbelts? What are the forces that now keep us alive longer? Behind each breakthrough lies an inspiring story of cooperative innovation, of brilliant thinkers bolstered by strong systems of public support and collaborative networks, and of dedicated activists fighting for meaningful reform. But for all its focus on positive change, this book is also a reminder that meaningful gaps in life expectancy still exist, and that new threats loom on the horizon, as the COVID-19 pandemic has made clear. How do we avoid decreases in life expectancy as our public health systems face unprecedented challenges? What current technologies or interventions that could reduce the impact of future crises are we somehow ignoring? A study in how meaningful change happens in society, Extra Life celebrates the enduring power of common goals and public resources, and the heroes of public health and medicine too often ignored in popular accounts of our history. This is the sweeping story of a revolution with immense public and personal consequences: the doubling of the human life span. |

Terrified that her vision might never return, Tessa feels like she has nothing left to be happy about. But when her grandparents place an ad in the local newspaper looking for a typist to help Tessa continue writing and blogging, an unlikely answer knocks at their door: Weston Ludovico, a boy her age with bright eyes, an optimistic smile...and no legs. Knowing how angry and afraid Tessa is feeling, Weston thinks he can help her. But he has one condition -- no one can tell Tessa about his disability. And because she can't see him, she treats him with contempt: screaming at him to get out of her house and never come back. But for Weston, it's the most amazing feeling: to be treated like a normal person, not just a sob story. So he comes back. Again and again and again. Tessa spurns Weston's obnoxious optimism, convinced that he has no idea what she's going through. But Weston knows exactly how she feels and reaches into her darkness to show her that there is more than one way to experience the world. As Tessa grows closer to Weston, she finds it harder and harder to imagine life without him -- and Weston can't imagine life without her. But he still hasn't told her the truth, and when Tessa's sight returns he'll have to make the hardest decision of his life: vanish from Tessa's world...or overcome his fear of being seen. 100 Days of Sunlight is a poignant and heartfelt novel by author Abbie Emmons.

how to write anything in file: How To Write a Book - The System Dan Moskel, 2014-09-16 How awesome will it feel to add to your resume, that you're published author? How about being able to say to your friends, family, and associates, they can grab a copy of your book at iTunes, Amazon, BarnesandNoble.com, on the Kindle, Nook, and in audio book? How cool will that be? The best part about writing a book, is this is a great way to generate passive recurring steams of revenue in the form of royalties on your book sales. Would your life improve with multiple recurring, passive streams of income? Could that help you break free the bonds of spending Monday through Friday with Dwight Schrute and Michael Scott from the hit TV show, The Office? Let me share a cold harsh reality, it's said 8 in 10 Americans want to write a book, but how many of these well intended folks, actually do it? The Department of Labor in 2012, reported less than 130,000 writers and authors, among a population of more than 300 million people. In other words, the odds are about as good as winning the lottery. The plain truth is writing a book, is a job. It requires you to invest energy, time, and effort. But, it doesn’t have to be some long arduous journey. If you listen to what the others say, you’ll hear them yammering on about investing years into writing a book, and how painful the experience is. Recently, I even heard one author say he had two major illnesses, two surgeries, and spent two years writing his book, and still has no idea what to do differently, other than purchase better health insurance for the next one. Come on man, how about trying anything differently! You see the Rosetta Stone to writing your book is following a simple, proven step by step formula. This is how you write one book and if you so choose, five more, and without feeling like your donating an organ, giving birth, or solving advanced calculous. Surely, you’ve seen an episode of the hit TV show, Shark Tank, with Barbara Corcoran, she’s written three books. But, did you know she has dyslexia, and was a D student in high school? It doesn’t require a Harvard degree, and the lack of a formal education didn’t stop Charles Dickens, H.G. Wells, Jack London, or Mark Twain, to name but a few! Look, this is my eighth book, and just like Chris Farley, in the movie Tommy Boy, I barely escaped college, in less than a decade, and started writing professionally as a college dropout. During our great recession, and have earned millions of dollars, working from home, and even part time, while finishing school. You may have even seen me on national TV in my own infomercial. It’s awesome to say I’ve appeared on ESPN with LeBron James, even if we weren’t playing basketball together. I don’t say this to brag, but so that you will take my words seriously. In this book you’ll be empowered with a simple, bite size, 11 step system to become one of the few brave courageous souls, that takes this dream, and turns it into a reality. You are a dreamweaver, let’s get busy and make it happen. Just think about what being a published author, will do for your career? Surely, it’ll pour rocket fuel on positioning you as an expert, and authority in your field. Along with raining down upon you potential media interviews, speaking engagements, new clients, the sky’s the limit. Do you hear that knocking? For it’s the moment of opportunity at your door. But, just like in the movie the Matrix, Keanu Reeves was given a choice of the red pill or the blue pill, right now, this moment, you’re faced with the same decision, what choice will you make? You see, it’s not luck, happenstance, or black voodoo magic that you’re hearing this message. Come, along now. Let’s get started with step #1, and keep in mind what Mark Twain said: “Twenty years from now, you’ll be more disappointed by the things you didn’t do, than by the ones you did do.” P.S.
