Be-attitues of Effective Writing
Mostly us are good at oral communication but when we draft a mail or write a document we find it
difficult to dump our minds precisely. Following these Be-Attributes, you can win your writing
block in less time and ease. Frequent Writing - As simply stated "To write more with no block
you have to write more often". When you often write you tend to stay plugged with your writing
skills and there is tremendrous writing flow. Its been said that writing isnt that hard but sitting to
write makes a man feel too hard.
Using Outlines - It is always a good practice to outline whatever be your writing. As all of us work
in an IT work arena and we prefer to draft mails, write documents and test cases. Be it what, best
way to write, is by outlining your draft first. Outlining a draft is called a skeletone. If you are
writing is done periodically, like updating a document then, prepare a skeletone and save it.
Anytime you can open the skeletone and meat the document with the mandetory updates. This
saves a lot of time.
Use Templates - Template is basically a structure that helps you to place content appropriately.
For instance, if you have different content placed under different styles, you can create these
styles primarily and save them as a template. Everytime you prepare a document open the
template (having different styles), prepare the document using the styles and save a copy of it
locally as per your need. This helps you prepare a structured and a well organized document with
all the essential style that you need at any instance of writing.
Brainstoming/Captuating your Ideas - Now your writing mood, outline, and template is all set. But,
how would start your writing? All of us have our starters blinking to make a start. To make a
proper start with introduction, you could brainstom your mind by asking these questions - what is
this mail/document about? why do we need this mail/document? To whom is this mail/document
addressed? How deep/intense should I speak on the topic?Now pen down randomly whatever is
flashing in your mind. These points could later be correlated with the related informed that needs
to go into the draft.
Eyeing Topics - Now template with random ideas are ready. What is the next coin that we need
to move? Start penning down the topics/chapters that needs to go into the mail/document. Once
the topics are outlined, try to fit the randomly penned content at appropriate places. This would
concieve a rough mail/document by now.Growing with the Draft - Once a rough draft is ready you can go head fitting-in more topics and
content accordingly.
Finding Writing hours - Most of us write drafts or document hastily while leaving home or at edge
hours. While doing so we do not look back at what we have written. In general, content appeal to
look good at first shot but when we open the same content again, they appear to us with a
difference and we may even wonder if we were the owners of such drafts. So, its best to write
drafts at leisure hours and self-review our draft before sending them out at edge hours. Best to
follow a strict or favourite hours in morning or noon while preparing documents. This would result
in productive content.
Hope these be-attributes would help you write quality documents with ease.
