The document discusses the writing process. It states that writing can become addictive as writers create new works to express their ideas. Motivation is also important for writers as it allows them to improve and spend more time writing varied content. The conclusion is that motivation is fundamental to writing because it enables writers to enjoy the process and want to write more each day with better structure and flow, making it a hobby rather than a job.

4. PARAGRAPH
“Writing became such a process of discovery that I couldn't wait to get to work in
the morning: I wanted to know what I was going to say.” ~Sharon O'Brie. Writing
can become in a good addiction because the writers create the need to make new
writings as a way of manifesting what they think. As in a good reading, when the
readers read, want to continue reading to know the outcome of the story; in writing,
the authors need to create new ideas that support the previous ideas. “(…) Writing
language becomes direct symbolism that is perceived in the same way as spoken
language” (Vygotsky, 1978, pág. 160). Motivation can give the writers better
development in their writings. A motivated writer spends more time in the creation
of different written texts and is ready to create more varied and proper content. “In
highly capable and motivated writers, able to deploy a variety of approaches as
their purposes and audiences change” (Bruning & Horn, 2000, pág. 25). Motivation
is fundamental in writing processes because the writers start to enjoy the writing
and they want to write more and more, each day with better coherence and
cohesion; so for them it will be not a job but a hobby. Writing is a process that is
constantly changing and improving.
