Right, so you’ve started writing. 👏 The first couple of sentence... they make sense! But by the time you’ve reached the end, you’ve started somewhere and ended up… well, somewhere completely different. Sound familiar? Somewhere along the way, the main point drifts off, and the thread gets tangled. This is how your readers are going to feel if you feel the same way while writing. But hey, this is why drafts exist! Writing happens in the re-writing. The blank page might be daunting, but nothing will fill it if we don’t start stacking one word after another. Filling it? That part doesn’t take much effort. But editing? That’s where the real magic happens. ✨ One of the most underrated writing skills you picked up over time is “editing out the noise.” It’s all about - ✂️trimming out the clutter 🔍focusing on clarity 🧩 Ensuring there is flow and coherence Think of it as “spring cleaning” for your draft, making sure every sentence builds on the last and strengthens the whole. If you don't see it then take a step back 🕰️ Sometimes, putting the piece aside for a bit helps reveal where things feel cluttered. Coming back with fresh eyes can be a game-changer. So, here’s to filling that blank page, one word at a time—and making the editing count! #contentwriting

Ethos, pathos and logos in writing Sounds weird and complicated. Then let’s dive into it to understand more. ✅ Ethos is writer’s credibility which is being established with the work. Aristotle described this as a state of mind from the speaker’s point of view where he/she put efforts to make their readers believe them. It’s the writer’s authority and status which gains the attention from the readers. ✅ Pathos is the expression of emotions. It’s a writer’s job to make their readers feel their emotions by connecting with the stories and the characters. Literature is a powerful tool which can bring out your emotions. ✅ Logos is about the reader’s logical reason. While reading literature they build up their own logical arguments based on their perception. Here comes the deconstruction method into the picture. The way a reader deconstructs something, their logic and reasons also build up in the same way. It’s exactly the same a regular content writer also do everyday. It’s a part of their job and ethos, pathos and logos come with it. Do you believe in the same? Follow Moumita Biswas for more meaningful and insightful posts.

What if I told you preparing for writing is more important than writing? I usually do this. And it works. But how? Spend 20% of your time getting organised. - Declutter your desk - Note down your ideas - Pick a time when you're in Zen mode to write - Brainstorm your headlines - Outline your content structure This preparation sets the foundation, so the remaining 80% of the writing process feels almost effortless. Writing becomes a lot more stress-free. Above all, you will enjoy turning your words into meaningful content. Do you prepare yourself before writing?

Measure twice, cut once. The same rule applies to writing. One of my seniors once told me: "A writer may not write every single word of a blog or article, but they'll likely have a hand in editing all of it." I’ve used this advice countless times. Writing often feels like pouring ideas out as they come, letting creativity run wild. But editing? That’s where the real work begins. It’s about refining each sentence, rethinking phrases, and making sure every word adds value. Even if we didn’t write every line, the editing process ensures our voice and vision are reflected across the entire piece. So, the next time you’re working on something, remember what truly defines a writer isn’t just the words they put down, but the care they take in shaping those words into a finished piece worth reading. PS: Do you find editing more rewarding or challenging? Would love to hear which side you're on. #WritingTips #EditingSkills #ContentCreation #WritingCommunity #ContentWriting #WritingAdvice #EditingTips #WriteBetter

Whats your biggest struggle when writing long form content? Mine is usually writing to much or over explaining. Even though it's long form, I believe good long form is intuitive and respectful of the reader in format and diction. Maybe you struggle with one of these? 1. Connecting ideas over longer pieces of writing 2. Coming up with ideas with depth to talk about 3. Finding the balance between meh and overediting 4. Feeling like you don't have enough authority to write long form 5. Having enough time to write long form Lets discuss in the comments!

3 Lies About Writing You Shouldn't Believe 🧜♀️ Myth #1: You should wait until your first draft is perfect before editing. 🧜♂️ Nope, nope, nope! Editing is a crucial part of the writing process, and you should do it from the beginning. The first draft is rarely perfect. The real magic happens when you go back and refine your work, fix mistakes, and make your writing shine. Myth #2: Writer's block means you're a bad writer. 🧜♀️ Writer's block happens to even the best writers out there. It doesn't mean you've lost your talent or that you'll never write again. When you get stuck, just take a break, do something else for a while, and come back to it with fresh eyes. The words will start flowing again, I promise! Myth #3: You have to write every single day to be productive. 🧜♂️ This one is false! While writing regularly is important, you don't have to pressure yourself to write daily. The key is finding a writing schedule that works for you - an hour a day or a couple of hours a week. What matters most is your consistent progress, not how often you put pen to paper (or fingers to keyboard). #writing #content #contentwriting

It can be really hard not to do this... Those errors that pop up, demanding your attention while you are writing end up slowing you down. In my early writing days, I would pause, make corrections, and then continue writing. But I realised that apart from the time I’d spend going back to correct the mistakes, i sometimes lose my chain of thought while at it. Now, I write down my entire draft and then visit it later for my first edit. Doing this has sped up my writing process. Resist the urge to edit your content while writing❌. Write first and edit later✅ ♦️ What time-saving time tips have helped speed up your writing process? #writingtips #contentcreation #socialmediamarketing

Be aware that: Writing 7 days a week won't get you leads. (If you're not improving your writing) The old traditional writing process - • Stare at a blank page, • Wrestle with ideas and • Hope for inspiration to strike. I used to hate it because - It wastes my time and energy. The good thing is, I changed my approach. Now I practice writing BACKWARDS. This might sound crazy, but hear me out. Instead of searching for ideas, you start with the ending. This helps in - ⤷ Clarity and focus. ⤷ Efficient use of the time. ⤷ Engaging audiences till the end. ⤷ Stronger and more epic storytelling. Here's how I write backwards, it's quite simple -> 1. I define my single objective. 2. I brainstorm the powerful ending. 3. I reverse engineer my full narrative. 4. I fill up all the needed gaps in content. 5. I read thrice and refine it as much as I could. I feel knowing the finish line keeps your writing focused and cuts out the fluff. Try this next time. Start with an ending. See where it takes you. P.S. What is your secret to good writing? Come on, spill it out. ♡
