Essence of high technicalities in writing by Akinwale Peace
What is essence?
In short, essence is "A significant feature of something or an idea"
When we say high, high means "rated thought, intention, determination or purpose to achieve an idea"
Technical or technicalities can be said to mean "the state of specificity in something or ideas"
Considering the three elucidated terms, we can all decipher that "essence of high technicalities in writing" means "the significant feature of intentions or determinations in the state of specificity in/of ideas of/in writing"
Taking a brief look at my definition of "essence of high technicalities in writing," we can see the main sole reason for writing is the idea of writing.
Without an idea, I bet you that you'll have little or no reason to write.
One thing is to have an essence of writing, another thing is to have the technicalities in writing, another thing is to have a determination in writing and it's another thing to amplify the ideas of your writings.
Many people might believe that you don't need to write every day, mainly because you don't have a clue to what you wanted to write but let me tell you this, the "idea" is hidden inside of you, it is when you choose a "significant feature" that the "determination" will come and the "specificity" of "ideas" will flow and thus, you'll have a good written work through all those three.
I ponder repeatedly as it astounds me that some think writing isn't a thing to take with seriousness or do with the might of their priority.
Let me tell you, "if you're a writer and you don't take writing serious, you don't have the resolution to write every day or you don't have time to involve yourself in a pre-writing, I'm telling you now that you'll develop tastelessness in your passion for writing.
What do I mean by pre-writing?
Pre-writing to me means "a written work that has not been edited, a kind of drafted work that could need a brief revisit to make it worthwhile"
Let me tell you this, "the passion you have for writing isn't enough at all to make you a good writer but the essence of your high technicalities in writing is the Key opener to the your passion of writing."
Yes, you might have the significant feature to write (essence), You might have the state of specificity (technicalities) and you might have the idea of what you want to write but when you discard your rated thought and determination in writing, you will not be proud of your written work let alone your readers.
Because the enthusiasm for your work to worth great has been undermined by your low thought, intention and determination in writing.
Meaning that you must always have the hidden desire to rate your work from your thoughts and determinations.
Note: You don't need to speak often, let your works speak for you; when your works speak for you, it promotes you cos' you've poured all the determination and thoughtful intention of your works into it.
It's not a must you invent an idea, you can borrow an idea but when you use the borrowed idea in your work; make it different, make it worthwhile, make it enticing and specially defined by your readers, that is when your works will speak for you; because you had a significant feature (why you borrowed it), you had a rated thought, intention or determination, (why you attractively borrowed it), because you had a specific message you wanted to pass across (reason for borrowing it), that is why it'll be different:
Those things are from your passion and purpose of writing which will give you a different work from what you borrowed and as well earn you another feather to the cap of your reasoning and high technicality(ies) in writing.
Often, writers complain about writers block because they don't want to borrow an idea, you don't borrow idea cos' you don't have a significant feature (essence), rated thought, intention and determination, (high), specificity (technicalities) in writing.
All those things can give you another invented idea only if you could make an idea from a borrowed idea which will promote the determination in your significant feature and as well, give you a specific idea or aim in your writing.
I as a person don't believe in writers block cos' when I have no clue to what to write,I write.
When I have no theme or topic, I write,because I believe that when I'm done with 2 lines of what I wrote in my subconsciousness of the proposed write up, I'll have a clue to what I wanted to write and I'll have a theme I wanted to write on and at the end, I often choose a phrase or a synonymous word to a phrase in the write up and use it as the tittle of the write up.
This is because I have the essence of high technicalities in writing, I have the significant feature with rated thought and intention coupled with specificity of my idea in the passion and purpose of my writing.
I expect you to say that too, say I have the essence of high technicalities in writing,
Say I have the significant feature with rated thought and intention coupled with specificity of my idea in the passion and purpose of writing.
You don't need to be less-busy before you write, you don't need to think deeply about what is happening before you write, you must always write whenever you feel like and when you don't feel like because when you have no clue, you can borrow an idea, that is when a slight clue will flash your thoughts.
It is when you dare that the significance will come, the determination will come and the specific idea will flow with the passion you have and thus, twill give you a brilliant and awesome write up.
Note: You don't need to speak often, let your works speak for you; when your works speak for you, it promotes you cos' you've poured all your determination and thoughtful intention into your works.
"It is when you dare that you're there, if you don't dare, you cannot be there"
Now talking about the technicalities, there are specificities that should be identified before writing, what is the main thing you want your readers to derive from it?
What do you think readers will love in the write up?
What is the main thing that could make them want more even when there is no more?
It is when you consider those things that will make your write up meaningful.
Note: a written piece, beautifully craved but lacks specificity is as useless as a piece craved without editing.
You need to be specific, is it about war or love or pain or ... It could be anything as well as you can back them up with well crafted words.
Mind you: You can have many themes in a poem even without lengthy lines, this is because they'll be short and summarized in witty-like words,
E.g
The love I had for him seem to hate me,
As I always dream of gun sounds from him:
The night he smiled at me under the mistletoe
Was a night I could hold as he went hitherto
with his hands killing my pains of loosing his love;
but all I could hear now is gun shots from his love!
Why does my heart swim in oceans of fogs?
Do I need him to give me a comfort hug?
Play me not silly thoughts! But sweats of war
stream down from my face, is this the pow'r of love?
From that piece, we could dercipher diff' themes esp love, war and confusion, amidst all...
It is the specificity that often speak in the write up, it's not address and irrational twisting of words.
With your high technicalities in writing, you can make your works speak for you.
Help those that are already helped, you're helping yourself in the stead.
If you help others, you're helping yourself.
Helping the weak bones in writing can also promote your essence of high technicalities in writing in the sense that; you'll have flows of idea while dealing with him/her and when you have a new idea, you'll back it up with your rated thought to make it great.
A stone can sharpen a cutlass, the same stone can make the cutlass blunt.
We can help ourselves only if we want to help ourselves.
Tips to high technicalities in writing:
1. Be focused: distraction will definitely come but when you have the flow of new idea, you have to quit other thing lest the idea quits you.
When ideas quits someone, it means the inspiration for that particular idea is gone and the person will just sit and think deeply what came to his memory the other time he was busy but he' might not be able to remember properly again. This tells us that "no matter how sharp a brain could have been or can be, he'll still forgets some things."
That's why they said "a fainting ink is better than the sharpest brain."
2. Be determined: Rate yourself! How much do you rate yourself?
Do you write your works as local write ups or you have the inner mind and view of a better future from your works?
"It is when you determine the kind of worth you give to your work that the work itself will be a worth that greatly worths' much".
3. Be specific: Are you motionless?
What moves you?
There are times we you to write things when we have no muse behind it but one thing that distinct it is the fact that you drastically change the source of the literary work from a " no idea work to a work full of ideas and lessons".
A times, you might write a humorous work and fail to notice some distinctive things unless you share it, it is when you share the write up that some people will point out the faults and some will praise the action that move it not knowing you just wrote it (subconsciously).
Be specific on what you want to achieve not what moved you to write.
Mere reading the write up again, you'll have some corrections that will soothe your chosen theme and it'll as well make your work a brilliant work.
4. Do you have a weak heart or a strong heart?:
When you have a weak heart, you might drastically change some things in your writings due to unnecessary pop ups like "it'll not be appreciated" and when you change those words, you replaced it undesirable words and that spoils your target but when you have a strong heart, when the idea comes and the flow flows, you'll be strong to write it as it comes and you'll have the courage to defend it even if you "might" have to defend blindly.
Have a strong heart as you write your work, it promotes your high technicalities in writing.
5. Be proud of your work: "It is not only the title given to the lion that made him gallant, it is his roars that made him a terror in the jungle".
When you defend your work, don't show a sign of regret that you posted it, you should instead have the pride that you can stand for it even when you're wrong.
It is not that you're not trying to take to correction but when you give up cheaply, you'll not know if their corrections are right or wrong and if this happens, you'll loose the taste you've given to it before.
6. Submit: When you submit your work, it proves your ultimacy when you write, it makes you feel great cos' you could write and it could be critique, corrected and praised but when you don't submit, you wrote and hid for perhaps, special submitting, I'm telling you that you'll not notice the mistakes in it and it'll thus make you a loser while you've thought you're a winner.
Note: "the essence of high technicalities in writing" is "the significant feature of intentions or determinations in the state of specificity in/of ideas of/in writing"
