Rules for Writing

Rules of Writing

                For the rules of writing, I think writing should remain simple and to the point. Too many words and complex sentences can make things confusing and overwhelming to a reader. When keeping it simple but intelligent at the same time, it makes it easy to get our points across in a clear manner. Below I have listed some of these rules I believe should be followed in writing.

1.       Don’t use words you don’t even know what they mean.

2.       Keep sentence structures simple for all to be able to understand.

3.       Using too many metaphors and cliché sentences gets redundant and should be avoided at all costs.

4.       I’d say around one or two per decent sized paragraph (300 words or more)

5.       Concise points are always nice. Getting the point across quickly not to lose anyone’s attention

6.       However, if detail is needed or preferred for certain writing, it is appropriate to use it.

7.       Use author quotations when necessary. Quotes are really nice but when overused it can get annoying to a reader.

8.       Grab a reader’s attention with great one liners and different uses of ethos

Following up, I believe if these rules are followed, it will make reading much more enjoyable to

everyone when the writings are concise and clear.
