Writing Practice: Moocs Academic and Business Writing Week 4 How I start writing / Interviewing my topic

How I star writing
I start writing by analyzing the writing topic. By reading the writing topic carefully, I can understand the key idea of the topic. Then I try to relate the key idea  to what I know. (If I do not know much about the key idea, I'll do research on it, if possible.) This will help me come up with the main idea of my writing. Analyzing the writing topic also helps me avoid digression. When I think of points to make, I try to come up with points from the opposite stand. For example, if I agree with the statement in a writing topic, I try to come up with the reasons to disagree with the statement and vice versa. If you deal with both points in the writing, the wring will be more convincing. And you can write a lot more than when you do not!
