Passions are merely ideas in their initial stage. They are the property of youth, and anyone who expects to feel their thrill throughout his life is a fool. Tranquil rivers often begin as roaring waterfalls, but no river leaps and foams all the way to the sea. Tranquility, however, is often a sign of great, if hidden, power. Intensity and depth of feeling and thought preclude wild outbursts of passion; in sorrow and joy the soul takes careful stock of every situation, and sees that so it must be.
—Mikhail Lermontov (Russian Novelist, Poet)

A grown man who can shed tears without embarrassment is like a yogi who has learned to expel toxic matter from his body by consciously speeding up the peristaltic rhythm. He can eliminate many of life’s poisons.

All things wise and wonderful,

Men, in general, seem to employ their reason to justify prejudices, which they have imbibed, they can scarcely trace how, rather than to root them out.

—Graham Greene (British Novelist)

—Washington Allston (American Artist, Writer)

There is a beauty in discovery. There is mathematics in music, a kinship of science and poetry in the description of nature, and exquisite form in a molecule.

10 Effective Tips to Sharpen Your Writing Skills in 2023

December 31, 2022 By Nagesh Belludi Leave a Comment

Writing enables you to articulate your ideas to targeted audiences to provoke discussions or respond to communication. It demonstrates one’s ability to persuade the reader and clearly communicate a message. Hence, writing skills imply one’s capacity to present ideas in a written piece, including the ability to use correct grammar, diction, sentence structure, punctuation, and spelling. Writing skills also include storytelling capabilities and information presentation.

Follow These Steps to Sharpen Your Writing Skills

Read more

Reading is always the best way to hone writing skills. Writing demonstrates an understanding of a topic and the ability to articulate oneself. These skills develop through reading as one acquires knowledge of the issues they wish to write about. The best route for knowledge acquisition is text, which creates a point of reference and a data source. Great writers are habitual readers with a thirst for information. Besides, reading helps one conceptualize ideas better and visualize the structures of a written piece. By reading, the writer learns various ways they can present their ideas and develop alternative arguments for different topics. Reading also enhances one’s diction and ability to construct sentences. As a result, the habitual reader becomes an excellent writer, amassing the knowledge and skills needed to present their arguments.

Study the basic writing principles

Although reading helps one understand various forms and techniques used by professional writers, basic writing rules are not easily identifiable in written pieces. One must demonstrate some commitment by researching writing principles. In this case, different writing forms have specific laws governing idea presentation, word choices, sentence structure, and style. For instance, academic writing requires one to use formal language, while creative writing is more attractive with some level of informality. Writing principles are the basic rules that govern presentation in different contexts. The basic paper structure for academic writing includes an introduction, a body, and a conclusion. It must also contain the thesis statement as the last sentence in the introduction. Paragraphs begin with a topic sentence and end with a conclusive one linking the idea to the next section. However, these rules may not apply in creative writing.

Always start with an outline

A good writer understands style and structure. When presenting complex topics, it’s advisable to separate different ideas into standalone paragraphs for clarity. However, longer papers require subheadings to distinguish the discussions supporting or opposing the main argument. Thus, the best writers start with an outline specifying the content included in the final piece. An outline is a preemptive structure of the paper, highlighting the main ideas and organizing the work with significant breaks using subheadings and topic sentences. You can use the grading rubric to develop an outline when working on a school assignment. The instructions usually contain specific requirements to be included in the final paper. These details act as a guide for structure and content.

Develop a thesis

Writing is the ability to conceptualize an idea and break it down into a simplified message for the desired audience. A thesis statement is the writer’s argument about the said topic. It gives the reader a hint about the document and the direction the discussion will take. Before you start writing, choose a side and identify the details needed to support or defend it. Although the introduction paragraph should be the last part to write, a thesis statement should be the first. You may refine and amend the argument based on the evidence and information you find during the writing process. Developing a thesis narrows your focus and demonstrates clarity of thought.

Proofread and edit

You can also improve the quality of your written document through proofreading and editing. Despite having mastered the basic elements of writing, typos are inevitable, especially when typing. Proofreading helps you eliminate grammatical errors and misplaced punctuation marks. You can also identify complex sentences and wording, making corrective adjustments as you reread your text.

Seek outside opinion

Although self-editing can be effective, you may not have the time or the knowledge to identify and eliminate mistakes. Professional paper writing services have teams of trained and experienced writers that can do the work affordably and fast. For instance, the following essay writing service CustomWritings boasts years of experience in academic and content writing, research, and review services. With a team of professional writers, expert editors, and customer support agents, the company completes thousands of cheap papers daily for USA, Canadian, and European students. It provides personalized essays written from scratch and edited to guarantee quality and consistency.

Tips for Sharpening Writing Skills

Master basic English

If you are writing in English, you must demonstrate your understanding of the simplest language skills. You can do this through mastery of grammar, punctuation, and spelling. A good reading piece should have minimal grammatical errors with correct spelling and punctuation. Typos are off-putting, especially to knowledgeable readers, and may confuse the non-native audience. Understand the concepts of flow and style to help you improve your presentation. Use the following tips to sharpen your writing skills in English.

Enhance your diction and avoid jargon

Word choice is a critical determinant of flow and meaning. Enhance your diction through reading and verification. Make your thesaurus a close friend to expand your word choice and avoid repetitive wording for clarity. Using jargon and colloquial words limits your audience and minimizes your reach. Use simple English with stylistic devices to improve understanding and connect with the reader. Sharpening your writing skills implies enhancing your ability to articulate your message efficiently. Learning new vocabulary increases the ways you can present an idea without repetition.

Understand the context

One of the best ways to sharpen your writing skills is through research. While reading improves your knowledge, research enhances your ability to conceptualize different contexts. A good writer should demonstrate an understanding of the setting within which their writing is situated by using the correct language and background information. Context helps you eliminate conflict and anticipate the reader’s questions.

Anticipate the reader’s perception

Every piece of writing has a specific audience to whom the message is intended. The reader’s ability to anticipate their questions and interests determines their ability to articulate the message accurately. For instance, academic writing skills imply the ability to tackle a scholarly issue with supportive evidence and clear working. An academic writer must respond to preemptive queries for experts in the field, including researchers and elite academic experts. One must research the topic to gather sufficient evidence and answer anticipatory questions from the intended audience. A college essay must address possible questions from the professor. Similarly, a creative paper should anticipate questions from the readers and address them within the storyline.
