Paragraph Writing- A Stylistic Process

Very less study has been carried on paragraph writing, now a days the art of paragraph writing is very important for students, researchers, academicians and professionals if they want to write effectively and express their thoughts in an impressive manner. The art of writing demands two things- competence of the subject and deep knowledge of the stylistic process for arranging the subject in a proper form. The second thing is equally important as it focuses on the manner of writing. If the ideas are properly formed and arranged in a piece of prose writing, it casts a good impression on the readers. This formation through the stylistic process is generally termed as paragraph, a distinct unit in prose. A paragraph may comprise with one or more than one sentences as the situation demands. Therefore, there is no fixed rule for the length of a paragraph; short paragraphs are preferred by the readers. Since the paper is concerned with the stylistic process for developing a paragraph, it becomes important to know about various elements of the writing style. A paragraph is a combination of different kinds of words and sentences arranged in a systematical order. It also requires some useful devices for achieving unity, coherence and emphasis in order to give it impressive and effective form. Thus, it can be said that paragraph writing is an intellectual activity and, therefore, it requires constant practice and proper learning of its stylistic process. (Abnish Singh.
