Rhetoric Précis
In his article “Writers On Writing”
(2000), Kent Haruf introduces the idea that not all writers go through the same
process during the prewriting process that allows them to create masterpieces,
they just put themselves in environments that their brains are active and
thinking. Haruf supports these ideals by giving examples of each writer’s
process such as ‘John Cheever writing some of his early stories in his
underwear.’ His purpose is to demonstrate the simplicity of placing your mind
in a setting that allows it to think and how greatly it can affect ones writing
in order to further the knowledge of his readers about getting ready to create
a piece. Based on his undertone humor behind previous writers ‘techniques,
Haruf’s audience is a slightly younger audience (most likely in college) that
strives to create more analytical, qualitative, and persuading pieces of
literature.
