Think LESS. Frictionless. Seamless. Mindless.
When I write, I think.
Yes, of course. Like you, I think about the content. Like you, I think about getting my message across. Like you, I wonder how I can keep my readers’ attention until they hit the last word of my article.
I think about all these.
And then, more.
Beyond the above, I am obsessed with the readership experience. Would readers find it smooth? Does this word stand out in a sea of daily vocabulary? It goes on and on.

Yup.
The writing techniques I work to perfect
The origin of this article is a question.
Make it 2. 1 came from Tracy Collins. The other came from Sarina Chiu. They asked how I developed my writing style. Plus techniques I use. I got caught with my pants down.
I never gave it much thought in the first place.
I should.
