Abstract :
A prerequisite to effective writing is logical thinking. Often the act of writing forces the organization of one´s thoughts. Effective writing involves consciousness of the purpose of a message, awareness of the reader´s needs and interests, evaluation of available information (quantity and quality), and attention to the order of presentation. First drafts should never be accepted; review and revision should be standard procedure.
