How to write an author assessment
Understand the purpose of your author assessment.
Your assessment should never try to change the author's style toward your own style. However, you may have different goals based on the reason you are assessing the author.
If you are being asked by an unpublished writer to critique their work, you must focus on giving positive critiques as well as identifying areas that need work. If the assessment is being done in a teaching capacity, make the assessment a careful critique that encourages the writer to take a certain direction in their next draft.
