Chapter 1 explains all the components of the writing process. The writing process is where all ideas are created or collected. As mentioned in Rules for writers, most experienced writers handle a piece of writing in stages. In order for a piece of writing to be successful, planning is key.
Before deciding what you are writing about, generate ideas and sketching a plan can help create a subject. Upon developing a subject, getting more information from different types of sources helps hold structure in your writing. Where do your sources come from? Every piece of writing have a purpose, either to persuade, to educate others, to analyze, to argue, etc. Depending on your subject, according to rules for writers, each essay or piece of writing should have a audience. Having a target audience can lead you to an effective strategy for reaching your readers.
I think that jotting down ideas throughout your day is perfect way to help develop a subject for your paper. It seems similar to free writing. Writing down anything that comes to mind, then later go through and pick out phrases or thoughts you can use. I have a difficult time writing papers because I never know where to start. Learning that part of the writing process is to make sure you do it in steps. This will help me keep my mind on track to a better paper.
