MAIN BODY
(a) Differences between competent and incompetent writers
Competent writers are the ones who have higher level of journalism in them so that they
can write about topics in detail. Competent writers make a place for themselves in the market by
providing the right content and their first draft is never going to be prefect because a writer likes
to improve with the story or knowledge they would like to convey to their audience
(Namasivayam and et.al., 2017).
Incompetent writers are not going to have depth in their writing and they are not even
going to have a stable and loyal reads as well. The work of these writers is not going to be up to
the mark which is expected out of them which would make the working and confidence level of
them get affected.
Skills in a competent writer which are missing in incompetent writers
 Use of vocabulary
There is a large vocabulary which is present and using the right word at the right time is a
skill which a competent writer must have in them so that they will be able to put forward their
idea effectively. The writers must know their audience well so that the words they are using are

good enough for the readers to be able to understand them (Iskandar, 2020). Most of the
competent writers do not use difficult vocabulary in the beginning which is going to make the
readers reach out for a dictionary because that would lose interest of the readers. Incompetent
writers will not be able to understand this factor and make use of good vocabulary right in the
beginning which is going to make the readers want to read further. Knowing the readers is very
important for the readers so that they will be able to make the most from that factor.
 Confidence in expressing thoughts
There is no taste in the writers when they are putting out information to the readers and
which is not there in a competent writer because they want to improve all the time. There is a
sense of confidence in the readers when they are putting out any information because there is
going to be a lot of research which is going to be put in the information they are putting out.
There is creativity and a positive tone which the competent writers would use even if the news is
not going to be effective for the readers so that the readers would want to read more (Vijay,
2018). The ideas have to be unique but a sense of confidence is also important in the unique
factor so that the readers are going to get attracted to this factor easily and that is good for a long
run. There is a manner which writers must know to be able to present their work to the readers so
that they can get the expected reaction which is expected out of them.
 Unique writing style
A competent writer will have a unique identity for their writing which is going to make them
stand beyond the other writers so that there are going to be better readers. There is a selected
reader which the writers target for themselves according to their style so that they can have a
stable income from this factor. There is a lot of experience and understanding which the writer
must have for them so that they can convey their message in a better interesting and right tone to
the audience. In an incompetent writer this skill is going to be missing which is going to make
the work of their not be in the competition with the other writers (Kwon, Partridge and Staples,
2018). There is going to be a lack of experience which is going to be present and that is not good
for the writers. It is important to know when to use which tone or skill would make the writing
more appropriate for the readers so that the reaction is going to be as expected.
 Imperfect first draft
