Good writing isn't about removing complexity, especially if it's a complex topic. It's about removing unnecessary jargon. ❌ "Light undergoes refraction as it traverses media with different indices of refraction." ✅ "Light bends when it moves from one material, like air, into another, like water."

Instead of naming the emotion, try to describe what's happening in the body or the scene. ❌ "He was anxious over the email." ✅ "His coffee went cold while trembling hands rewrote the email for the fourth time." Specific details carry emotional weight!

Try leaning into the examples only YOU could choose, the opinions YOU share, and the stories only YOUR team can tell!

One editing question worth asking: "Could our biggest competitor yoink and publish this unchanged?" If the answer is yes, that's usually a sign to add specifics that reflect how you see the world.

currently reading Violets by Shin Kyung-Sook 💐it's giving me the same vibes as Morisaki Bookshop, but totally different (if that makes sense LOL). i like SKS's books, Please Look After Mom and I Went to See My Father were amazing

Contrary to popular belief, passive voice is a tool, not a flaw! The key question is whether it serves the reader or simply avoids naming who's doing the action.

Booo being responsible sometimes #booksky

When you want to buy every book on your wish list, but remember you’re an adult with bills to pay. I don’t like it. It’s too much responsibility.

Just finished the first of the Finlay Donovan series! I can't WAIT to get to book 2, but all of the books I had on hold in Libby decided to become available at once LOL

I am a certified #TEFL teacher, but unable to teach now. I LOVE everything about language learning, though, so I'm creating a series of learning materials for adults that other #ESL teachers might find useful for first-time or last-minute lessons. More to come in time 💛 www.etsy.com/shop/RoyalAz...

Text overlaying a spread of three worksheets reads "Real-Life English Roleplay Worksheets." A graphic in the top left notes it as 15 scenarios available. A graphic at the bottom says "printable, digital, PDF."

Text above a spread of four worksheets reads "30 Day ESL Warm-up Bundle" On the left, each kind of warm-up is listed: writing prompts, this or that, would you rather, daily discussions, bell ringers, brain breaks. Beneath them, a note says "Pre-filled and blank versions!" A graphic at the bottom says "printable, digital, PDF."

Text above a spread of four worksheets reads "200+ Real-Life English Conversation Cards." A graphic in the foreground notes it as 20 topics available. A graphic at the bottom says "printable, digital, PDF."

Even on a big monitor, a chunky block of text is hell to read. I know for sure that I have, and will continue to, skip right past them. Think about your audience! 🫶🏽

A paragraph that looks manageable gets read. A paragraph that looks exhausting gets postponed. 🗣️📢Shorter paragraphs are less about style and more about courtesy to both the person on a smaller screen and the person who lives with a processing disorder!

This is fore-edge painting: a scene hidden in a book's gilded edge, invisible until you fan the pages just right. Here it meets Tolkien's Lord of the Rings.

Libraries make us a harder target for authoritarianism. Equal access to info, ideas, and space that doesn’t require a purchase to belong. Also: using the library means money stays in your community instead of streaming out to Amazon. 📚 What’s checked out on your card right now?

I started The Garden this week and it totally pulled me out of my reading slump (was hitting 3 months very soon lol). Eerie little stories, you have never failed me 😭🙏🏽

Not to say that *every* "in order to" is wrong. Be concise, but be smart! Nuance is just as important as that quick scan 🧐

I don’t laugh when I see those news articles about how 32/35 students failed an exam for using AI. That makes me so sad. An entire generation who largely does not value learning. That’s not funny, that’s an indictment on society and people should be ashamed of themselves.

4️⃣ Embrace Feedback - Use constructive criticism to polish your work. This also kind of touches on the fresh perspective thing from before. Brand new eyes and all that

3️⃣ Know Your Audience - Who are you writing for? Not to bring up the gens, but the Xers aren't going to recieve something the same way as the Zillenials. Adjust your tone and style to your audience for better connection.

Frame your call to action as an opportunity or next step, not a command. Your audience will be more likely to engage with confidence. #WritingTips #AcademicEditing #BusinessEditing
