So...this is my conclusion....

Literary excellence is a form of writing which is superior to ones self in regards to others. For example, literary excellence in my opinion could be something that originally had potential and after many revisions, and effort put through a superior document was created. All in all, I feel that we need to strive for literary excellence if we so desire, to stand out amongst the great writers of the literary world. In the end, I suggest that all take the time, and set forth their ideas...and strive for great success.
