What do you do if your writing is causing conflicts with others?

Kafka said something about books being like axes to the frozen seas within us. If my writing is causing conflict, then I know it's moving in the right direction. Otherwise, what's the point?

It's great to see that the writer is willing to listen to the concerns raised. If you feel that your points are not being understood properly, it might be helpful to engage in constructive dialogue. This way, you can clarify your thoughts and work towards a solution that works for everyone.

As far as I am aware, this has never happened. But if it did, I would absolutely listen to those concerns and do my best to resolve it, without offending anyone.

I have had this question asked before because some of my poetry is found offensive to some, sometimes even to the point of receiving death threats. I feel it is important to stand up for those who can not and speak the words they are afraid to. Many people around the world are against looking at women as not entitled to basic human rights. I will not waiver on my stance on this

Use Hanlon's razor: Never attribute to malice that which is adequately explained by stupidity. To goal of a discussion is to understand, not to dominate.

Na minha experiência, acredito que esse tem que ser um cuidado tomado antes da publica??o do texto, mas caso ocorra a melhor forma de resolver muitas vezes é buscando entender os outros pontos de vista.

Approaching and outside perspective will also help you evaluate your own side, either bolstering your beliefs and infusing your argument with new confidence and credibility, or you might end up learning something that bridges a gap in your own understanding and might shift your viewpoint. Either way, an outside perspective is the perfect litmus test to fine tune your argument and evaluate it's worth! ??

This isn't the only case in which you would need to adjust your writing. Your writing may be fine as is it, but you when you review it at a later stage, you're likely to find ways of how it could've been improved in order to better relate to and/or engage with your target readership. In either case, it's important to take ownership of your writing and use these experiences to improve the quality of your work in future.

Communication is key, especially if you're working for a client. Clients ought to list their preferences before you write for them, and you can also ask them state what their 'forbidden' terms, words, language and writing styles are too. Having a detailed brief, a style guide, a term/word preference list and regular client feedback are all key ways of ensuring that your writing is likely to meet both the client's and target readership's expectations.

If what you're expressing rings true to you, stand by it proudly. Let your viewpoints be known in a clear and concise manner, respecting others and maintaining the value of your argument ??

Truth is truth, and if there’s conflict because the other party doesn’t see or acknowledge the truth, it’s important that you remain true to what you know is true.

The purpose of writing is to express and/or explain events both historic as well as current from the writer’s perspective. Research, accuracy through fact checking and context analysis are all essential. However it’s rarely the Author’s writing that’s disturbing or concerning but rather the core message or subject matter. The holocaust, slavery, drug addiction, sex traffickers, domestic violence are all tragic and often offensive subjects to research and write about. Documentaries and docuseries on these subjects have been used to educate.

Writers are the people who write contents straight from the heart and this is true that original words are always harmless. We have freedom of writing, freedom to express our views and thoughts. But Writers are humans also and sometimes they go biased when writing stuffs . Religion is very sensitive issue and very personal thing but I know Writers I don't want to name them, they have written stuffs, infact full book which hurts emotions and caused much conflicts. So when writing we should keep in mind few points as follows. 1: Don't touch religious issues. 2: Don't hurt reader's sentiments. 3: Don't attack on personal life or character of any person. Pen is a sharp weapon and powerful. It's in our hands how to use it.

When writing, I’ve found it helpful to set “set the stage” for the reader. That is, create a reading environment in advance of the content, being open to all ideas, particularly if you’re writing about a well-known, hot button issue. I have found that clear and concise articulation of points, offered at about a fourth grade level, has the material ‘land’ pretty well for the reader. I don’t know the level of understanding of my readers so doing this removes confusion to an extent. It seems that it’s the confusion, the lack of understanding that has us feel conflicted. Perhaps we don’t yet understand clearly what we are reading. Writers get to ‘set the stage’ for the reader … and ‘feed it’s to the reader in the simplest terms.

Always provide more than one example of your writing, and consider the extra-linguist features of text when you do. Once you and the other party come to an agreement, use what you've learnt for future reference. The point is that, you as a Writer need to prove that you can adapt your writing style according to client preference and target readership expectation without compromising the quality of your work.

When asking questions such as this one, it's always best to be specific. Otherwise, you run the risk of your question making no sense. Just like this one. What kind of writer? Very few of us actually write about our personal opinions. Who are these ominous "others"? Do you mean in a political campaign? If so, we have done our job well because, well, that would be the whole point. Where does my agency to do anything about said conflict arise if I wrote said conflictual piece for an agency? We have no agency when working with an agency. The topic has nothing to do with us. In sum, if our copy lacks as as much insight and specificity as the question being asked for this "participatory article," there will be no potential conflicts.
