Tips On How To Become An Effective Writer.

Establish Good Writing Habits

Before anything you have to map out your project and stick to it. Get your notepad and your pen for writing. When writing and you do not want to be distracted by your phones to enable concentration switch them off. Listen to how people talk through social media, newspaper, news e.t.c. Write everyday even if it for some few minutes practice.

Be Creative 

nothing is important when it comes to writing , it is good when you make a note of ideas you come up with, keeping journals enable the writing juices flowing. When you want to develop ideas, it is good to look around and search everywhere.

Write About Things You Know

Write about things that seem incredibly obvious to you(and that you are perhaps overlooking) Describe how you do things, and how you sort your day. Pay attention to the question people ask at conferences, in e-mails, during dinner conversation for clues to what people know. Surprisingly, people are incredibly different and people are incredibly different and you may be a novel to someone else.

Write Less and Link More

find examples and point to them. Its perfectly okay to not re-invent the wheel, it can be equally valuable to create good content or showcase your process of discovery if it lead you to a great outcome or conclusion.

Read Great Writers

This may sound obvious, but it has to be said. This is the place to start. If you do not read great writing, you will not know how to go about it. Everyone start by learning from the master, by emulating them. Through them you find your own voice.

Build Your Vocabulary

You are bound to be more expressive when you write if you have more words at your command. When you come across a word that you do not know. take time to look it up. then try to use that new word that you have learned in your writing. You can seek vocabulary building exercise online to increase the number of words you have at your disposal.

Proof-read

Read through your work 15 minutes after writing it, and you will immediately find some mistakes that you have made. Do not just read through for grammar or spelling. Make sure you look for readability, flow and style as well. If the first re-read terms up a lot of errors, then it is probably a good idea to do it again for good measure.

Take a Huge Bowel Movement

When writing it is advisable to take some minutes to walk around to allow your body stretches and your brain to flow well.

Get An Editor

A good writer recognizes he needs hep. You can do this on your own. You need to get someone to critique your writing . I suggest a peer editor for starters.

These are tips to enable you become an effective writer. Becoming a good writer takes time and practice but that does not mean you can speed up the process.
