Madman > Architect > Carpenter > Judge

Madman

The creative spirit who generates ideas

Architect

Figures out a sensible order for your thoughts; ensures the structure

is sound and appealing

Carpenter

Writes the draft using the outline; makes the corners square and the

counters level

Judge/Janitor

Edits after a few days; checks to see whether anything has gone wrong

Remember!

Arrange points from the most important to the

least important. Clinch the argument with a strong close. –Most Legal writing.

Don’t Let the Judge out the cage (or in the

courtroom) too soon!

The madman might find a whirlybird helpful (or

another non-linear outline).
