Shitty First Drafts by Lamott Book Report/Review. https://studentshare.org/literature/1886325-shitty-first-drafts.
The paper "Shitty First Drafts by Lamott " is a wonderful example of a book review on literature. I believe Lamott chose the “Shitty First Drafts” for her chapter as a short of what first drafts generally look like. Essentially, it is her way of encouraging writers and potential writers not to worry so much about what they write in their first drafts. Instead, they should focus on writing everything and anything that comes to their mind for the first draft knowing that the shit can be removed and a more refined piece produced. Her essay is quite effective as it gives confidence to even novices not to give up trying to write the first draft. I relate well with everything that Lamott states....its never easy writing even a rough draft. It takes courage to write the shitty first draft which I always hope no one sees. Lamott describes a lot of things sincerely and incorporates humor in her essay which encourages her audience to read on. Lamott, Ueland’s and Stafford take note of the importance of the shitty first draft out of which brilliant ideas come. While all the authors have important points, I find Lamott’s ideas most appealing given that she articulates my situation when faced with a writing task and provides a sincere straight forward way of dealing with the problem...writing a shitty first draft.
