Writing from Start to Finish - A Six-Step Guide

Writing from Start to Finish - A Six-Step Guide
By Kate Grenville

Writing sounds simple—you start with an attention-grabbing first sentence, then you move on to some really interesting stuff in the middle, and then you bring it all together at the end.

The trouble is, how do you think up that attention-grabbing first sentence? Where do you go to find that really interesting stuff? What do you do if your mind is as blank as the paper you’re staring at?

Sometimes writing happens the way it does in the movies. You sit down, chew the end of the pen for a while, then you get inspired and something fantastic comes out. This is great when it happens, and if all your writing’s like that, well, hey, you can stop reading now. You don’t need this book.

This book is about what to do when you’ve chewed the pen down to the ink and you still haven’t got any ideas.

Overview of the Principles of Business Writing

Overview of the Principles of Business Writing

Focus
Adjust the scope and scale of your writing to influence the attitude and behaviour of your readers. Develop a brief and outline, execute these consistently.

Purpose
Identify the purpose of what you are writing about and connect it to your readers’ values, beliefs and ambitions. Avoid buzzwords, embrace relationships and use sensory language.

Meaning
Be precise in your use of language. Do not write what something is, explain what it means to people and the organisation.

Substance
Empower and respect your readers by allowing them to critically evaluate your claims. Elaborate or provide verifiable proof, ideally from independent outsiders.

Structure
Use sequence, consistency, guidance and balance to build a structure that guides your reader though the text.

Clarity
Find the essence of your story, make it self-evident, describe it simply and economically, structure it logically and make the whole thing flow.

Humility
Be humble while writing and editing. Critically judge your work, recognise dissenting views, avoid spin doctoring, be genuine.
