An executive has to produce a three-page position paper by tomorrow at nine. A department head suddenly has to write a one-page action memo by noon. A graduate student has a 20-page research paper due in a week. Yet, while most students & professionals write under pressure - with limited time, limited space, & a supervisor or instructor to please - few approach the task systematically. In 'Writing Under Pressure', Sanford Kaye, a renowned expert on the subject, presents a system he calls the Quick Writing Process (QWP) that focuses on real-world writing tasks & shows how to produce the clearest, most honest, most powerful work possible under the constraints of time & space. A writing instructor with 25 years' experience teaching students & professionals in business & government, Kaye tells writers how to budget their time & how to use this time efficiently. ER -
