Most people suck at writing.
But if you avoid these 12 common mistakes, I guarantee you won’t:
đź§µ
❌ Not Varying Sentence Length
We don’t see what we read.
We hear it.
If each sentence is the same length, you sound boring.
Instead, aim for 20% long and 80% short.
Make your sentences sing.
❌ Writing and Editing Together
Writing and editing are two separate skills.
Mix them and you suck at both.
Instead:
Leave 24 hours between each session (longer if possible).
Write first, edit later.
❌Not Formatting
Before we read, we assess.
'Is this worth my energy?'
Be easy to read and you'll be easy to love.
❌ Sounding Academic
Schools teach you to use complex and clever language.
But online, personality wins.
Treat writing like a conversation with a close friend.
Read it out loud before you publish.
Delete anything you wouldn’t say in person.
