Most students and professionals write under pressure--limited time, limited space, a supervisor or instructor to please--yet few approach the task systematically. In Writing Under Pressure , Sanford Kaye provides a system--the Quick Writing System (QWP)--that focuses on real-world writing tasks and shows how to produce the clearest, most honest, most powerful work possible under the constraints of time and space. A writing instructor with twenty-five year's experience teaching students and professionals in business and government, Kaye shows writers how to budget time--how much time to allot to planning, generating material, drafting and polishing to capture the meaning they are after--and how to use this time efficiently. In addition, he discusses particular writing situations (for instance, a three-hour final exam) in which QWP can be applied to make the most of what the writer knows. Most guides to writing ignore the constraints of time and space, but here Kaye tackles these problems head on, making this volume an essential reference for students, teachers, businessmen, and government officials--for anyone faced with a difficult writing assignment that has to be done now.
