One of the qualities of writing that is not much stressed is its problem-solving aspect, having to do with the presentation of material: how to structure it, what sort of sentences (direct, elliptical, simple or compound, syntactically elaborate), what tone (in art, "tone" is everything), pacing.

The earth is round, all the heavenly bodies are round; they all move on round or elliptical orbits.

Nobody stopped her. She was a comet. She did not know that she was not flying. — Elizabeth Gilbert
