College Writing Skills with Readings, 11th edition, emphasizes writing  skills as well as process. By identifying a set of 4 fundamental skills  critical to effective writing, College Writing Skills with Readings  encourages students to see writing as a skill that can be learned and a  process that must be explored. These 4 skills, or bases, for effective  writing are as follows:

Unity: Discover a clearly stated point,  or topic sentence, and make sure that all other information in the  paragraph or essay supports that point.

Support: Support the points with specific evidence, and plenty of it.

Coherence:  Organize and connect supporting evidence so that paragraphs and essays  transition smoothly from one bit of supporting information to the next.

Sentence skills: Revise and edit so that sentences are error-free for clearer and more effective communication.

These  four bases are essential to all effective writing, whether it be a  narrative paragraph for a personal journal, a cover letter for a job  application, or an essay for an academic assignment.
