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.
