The ABC’s of Writing (1 of 4)
Writing aims to capture a thought or
idea, to transfer it to a permanent
format, making it tangible.
The responsibility for that transfer
falling squarely on the writer’s
shoulder.
If communication is the ultimate goal,
write for your audience, not for
personal style.

The ABC’s of Writing (2 of 4)
Verbal communication is aided by
nonverbal cues, like hand movements
and facial expressions.
Writing has to be much clearer than
spoken language because it lacks
these assisting cues.
Objective, factually-based writing is
stronger and more persuasive than
writing that relies on opinion and
hearsay.

The ABC’s of Writing (3 of 4)
Any idea can be conveyed through
writing. If you can think it, you can
write it.
Great care is required to ensure that
your message is accurately
interpreted by its audience.
Nearly any statement can be
shortened while retaining its full
content; concise wording is less
likely to be misinterpreted.

The ABC’s of Writing (4 of 4)
There is always more to say about a
topic.
Good writing is composed of many
ideas, all connected by a single
purpose (e.g. a thesis statement).
Every sentence should relate to the
central goal of the paper.
