            Writing Tips

            A blank white paper or computer screen is often intimidating. And it is easy to get stuck because you don’t know
            how to start. Try these tips for composing and styling your document:

             u   First Things First: Remember, your readers may know nothing about what you are telling them. So think and
                write what they need to know first.

             u   Create an outline: Outlines help you identify which steps to take in which order, and they help you break
                the task up into manageable pieces. This strategy is especially helpful if you are writing a longer document
                such as a report, presentation or speech.

             u   Use AIDA: If you are writing something that must inspire action in the
                reader, follow the Attention-Interest-Desire-Action (AIDA) formula.
                Attract attention, create interest with the desire to act  and then action –
                these four steps can help guide you through the writing process.

             u   Try Some Empathy: Feel what your readers would feel after reading the
                document. Remember the need of your audience and their reaction.
             u   Use the Rhetorical Triangle: If you’re trying to persuade someone to do
                something, make sure that you communicate sincerely why people should
                listen to you and present information rationally and coherently.
             u   Break the Text:  To make your document user-friendly, use headings,
                subheadings,  bullet points, and  numbering  whenever possible  to  break
                up the  text. Headers should  grab the  reader’s attention.  Adding  graphs
                and charts is also a smart way to break up your text. These visual aids can
                communicate important information much more quickly than text.
