Writing FAST: How to Write Anything with Lightning Speed is a non-fiction book by Jeff Bollow, first published in Australia in 2004, which briefly became a best-seller on the Amazon.com charts in 2005.
The book targets new and intermediate writers, and distills the writing process into four parts - Focus, Apply, Strengthen, Tweak - which form the FAST acronym of the title.
- In the Focus phase, writers grasp and shape their concept.
- In the Apply phase, writers speed write to fill pages as quickly as possible.
- In the Strengthen phase, writers edit and shape the work.
- And in the Tweak phase, writers polish their prose to enhance the read.
The book's tone is conversational and motivational.
