Writing Tips for Success
๐ฏ Focus Your Perspective
Don't try to cover everything about the word. Choose one specific angle, memory, or insight that resonates with you personally.
๐ Tell a Story
The most compelling essays often include personal anecdotes or concrete examples that illustrate abstract concepts.
๐ Go Deeper
Move beyond dictionary definitions. What does this word mean in your lived experience? How has it evolved for you?
โจ Show, Don't Tell
Instead of stating "courage is important," describe a moment when you witnessed or experienced courage in action.
๐ Connect to Universal Themes
While your experience is unique, try to connect it to broader human experiences that readers can relate to.
โ๏ธ Edit Ruthlessly
With only 500 words, every sentence matters. Cut unnecessary words and make each phrase count.
