Short Stories: The Purest Form of Writing

That it is written by a professional does not mean it cannot be corrected. Professionals write beautifully but your supervisor might have a particular idea that is not yet included in your writing. Understand this to save yourself and your writer unnecessary headache. If this is helpful, RESHARE! #academicwriting #fybproject #researchwriting #adetokunboayodejiconsult

Why I Kept Writing Even When No One Was Reading Treating every unseen piece as a repetition is how drafts turn into real writing — and writers quietly get better. https://lnkd.in/gs5Xx2sf

"You know you're writing well when you're throwing good stuff into the wastebasket,"- Ernest Hemingway "Good writing is rewriting." - Truman Capote "I make lots of notes when I'm thinking about my novel. Sometimes, I can even read my own writing." - Me

✍ Writing Post Wednesday ✍ “Words, like glass, obscure when they do not aid vision.” — Joseph Joubert Write with Clarity. Write so the reader understands the people behind the message. Write so every word sharpens the story, not clouds it. If it doesn’t serve the message, let it go. That is the pain of editing, but the power of writing and the joy of reading. ☀️ #WritingWednesday #WritingLife

Short stories may not dominate the market. But they remain one of the most disciplined forms of writing. Because when you only have a few pages, every sentence must matter. https://lnkd.in/eJN3dydv

If there is anything you truly need to know about writing, it is uniformity. By uniformity, I mean knowing exactly what you are writing about and ensuring your thoughts flow into one another without falling apart. This is the only way your writing can truly make sense to your readers and impact them. Therefore, if there is one thing writers should work on, it is the ability to make their work well-articulated.

I once heard someone say that writing is a lonely profession. I’m not sure that’s entirely true. Yes, the work itself happens in quiet rooms and early mornings. But every sentence is written with someone else in mind — a future reader we may never meet. In that sense, writing might be one of the most relational forms of work there is. We spend hours alone so that a stranger, somewhere, might feel understood for a moment. #amwriting #writingcommunity

Honestly, the more senior someone gets, the worse their writing often becomes… Because they’re surrounded by people who don’t challenge vague thinking anymore. Writing exposes that very quickly 😬

Judges want clarity: what happened, what rule applies, what you want, and why you’re entitled to it. Confusion is expensive. **Takeaway:** Bottom Line up front. Clear writing is persuasive writing.
