The 4 Worst Writing Mistakes

🤔

Outstretched, long sentences are your enemy.

Easy-to-read writing is key.

It's quite simple.

Long and tiring sentences make readers, in the best case, scan your text carelessly.

Well, if at all.

So what makes a sentence turn off a reader?

Overuse of difficult words. Wordiness. Lazy editing.

Try to make your writing as clean as you can:

• Cut long sentences in two.

• Avoid unnecessary words like very, actually and really.

• Replace long with short words.

• Try one-word sentences like go, done, amazing.

Remember, no matter what you write, your goal is to make your writing be read😊.
