Writing Book 5 · Lesson 5

Mastery check

The system is mastered when a page still serves you a week later without the source.

What it is

This is where the routine stops being taught and starts being assumed. From now on a page that is set out wrong is simply handed back — in every subject, not only in writing.

Watch it built

1
Set up a page with no help and no reminder.
unassisted
2
Every item on the standard, checked by you.
heading · margin · numbering · skipped lines · letters
3
From today this is assumed, not taught.
the standard
Remember
From here, a page set out wrong comes back.
Ask yourself: “Could I revise from this page alone?”

Remember

If it works next week, it worked.
