Using Applescript to save a text file?

I would like to save a file as a text document in Applescript but I cannot figure it out.

I would like to....

set my_log to "This file can not be opened by this program. Please try another format. Thank You!"
open for access my_log
save as file my_log to (path to desktop) as "log.txt"

But it doesn't seem to work. Can anyone help?

Thank you!

Vic Piercy
