RE: Improve your Writing (Thesis Development)

in #writing7 years ago (edited)

Thank you, glad I found your blog. This is the first post I have read. I'm sure there is much valuable information here. Yes. In opening a discussion people will come face to face with their own views, one side or the other. I find it good practice to remain detached one way or the other while still taking a side. If the reader can sense that I am not trying to convince anyone that "I am right" and everyone else is wrong but rather that every opinion and viewpoint is valid, that allows people to explore their own understanding of the topic and be respectful of opposing views. Otherwise it can deteriorate very quickly into a "fist fight" mental response.

I have to agree with this, and yes "fist fights" in writing is never a good thing, unless you are a lawyer or in a debate. But in any other writing, addressing both sides shows your understanding and respect for the topic.
