Writing is often thought of as an almost purely mental activity that has very little to do with the state of the physical body. In other words, you should not need to be in good health to write well.
Several well-known examples seem to bear this idea out. One is that of eminent physicist Stephen Hawking, who was in the advanced stages of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis when he began one of his best-known books, A Brief History of Time. By then, he had extreme difficulties moving and speaking, and yet was able to “dictate” his books by moving his eyelid to direct his gaze towards particular letters.
Another example is Jean-Dominique Bauby, a magazine editor who suffered a terrible stroke in the mid-90’s, and as a result became physically paralyzed, even though his mental and intellectual functions remained largely unaffected. He also dictated a book letter-by-letter, which was the memoir of his condition entitled The Diving Bell and the Butterfly. Two years later, Bauby died.
Still, it must be noted that these dramatic stories are exceptions to the rule. Both men had a great deal of talent, determination, and support behind them. Very few writers—even very good ones—would be able to accomplish the same if ever they find themselves in the same health situation. Furthermore, the sheer brevity of Bauby’s book is testament to the arduousness of his writing situation. Bad health, illness, and aging can all take their toll on the quantity and quality of a writer’s output.

Writing a short story can be a fun experience since you are going to play carefully with your ideas on how you are going to make the tale work. Most importantly, you need to bear in mind that writing a short story is more on entertaining your readers. Therefore, you’ve got to learn how to make it more interesting and it must be written effectively to make it more appealing.
Even though you’ve got to write creatively, the result is that you will tend to write more and words just keep on flowing out of your mind. In the end, it will be hard for you to end up your story and make it shorter compared to the longer ones.

And if you are going to write a personal content or if you are assigned to write one, I bet you are going to apply evasive writing in your text since I have seen a lot of people who do the same thing. It is because they find it easier to write indirectly and express their own ideas gradually to make their readers hook up with the topic.

Humans have been writing and making marks as far back as the caveman. Initially man used his finger by dipping it in plant juices as a drawing and writing instrument. By 4000 BC, bone or bronze tools were used to scratch everyday events on to cave walls.
As language and writing developed there was a need for new improved, more effective tools.
It was the ancient Egyptians who were the first people to write on paper. In around 3000 BC the scribes from ancient Egypt used thick Calamus or Bamboo reed brushes to write on papyrus scrolls. The reed pen was used up until the Middle Ages, although the quill pen had begun to replace it as early as the 7th century.

Most doctoral students are a bit anxious about writing their dissertation. Even if they are excellent students, a dissertation is a very large undertaking. How will they manage a 300 plus pages assignment? This is something many don’t like to think about until this assignment comes due. The dissertation is a rite of passage for the doctoral student, separating the wheat from the chaff. Those that are successful receive their doctoral degrees. Those that cannot complete it realize they are unable to succeed at a doctoral degree and do something else. However, what some students don’t realize is that it takes certain skills to write your dissertation. Let’s talk about how to write one.
Every dissertation begins with an idea, a thesis that you will prove or disprove. This thesis must first be approved by your advisor. Finding your thesis begins with some preliminary research. This can be done in the university library and also through the Internet. While you don’t have to do all of your research to begin finding your thesis, you do want to have a good sense of how much research is available for your topic. You don’t want to select a topic that doesn’t have good supporting research.
Create a schedule for working on your dissertation and stick to it. A dissertation is a very large undertaking for any doctoral student. Many doctoral students have other pressing obligations, from family, part-time jobs or graduate internships or even teaching obligations at their universities. Having a schedule for working on your dissertating is very useful. It means you’ll get everything done on schedule. Getting a bit done every day or every other day is far better than trying to get a lot done in a single day. The typical paper is on a serious subject that needs to be delved into deeply. This is not light reading and needs your full attention and careful thought and deliberation.

Some students wonder about choosing the best topic for an essay. They wonder if there are any topics you shouldn’t choose one. This is an interesting question to consider. In some cases, there may be topics you should consider avoiding. In others, it can show more thought and passion to select a unique topic. Every student understands that your essay topic is important. This is part of your grade. Teachers grade in different ways, but most will consider this between ten to thirty percent of your essay’s overall grade.
There are some “hot button” essay topics that should be handled carefully. Topics like religion, abortion rights and politics are all “hot button” topics. Now perhaps you were specifically assigned one of these topics in school. Then of course you must write about it. If you are given your choice to write about a current event and you purposefully select a “hot button” topic then you must do so carefully. The topics are considered so because most people get quite emotional about them.
An essay works only when you are rational and state the facts. This means leaving your opinion outside of the paper. A “hot button” essay can still be an excellent topic and can impress your teacher as long as you can handle it with care. Only write about a topic if you can do so rationally and with respect to the other side of the issue.
