4 parts of writing

• __Valuable__
• Recongizable
• Organized
• Clear

Avoid “Text based rules”

• Avoid rules like “don’t do passive writing”, or “avoid jargon”
• Avoid writing in a way that shapes the text
• For every rule, ask “which reader” and “which purpose”
  • Ex: “use short sentences”
    • For which reader?
    • For what purpose?

Expert based writing

• Writing and thinking are usually entwined, writing helps out the thinking process
• In the real world, the function of the text you write is to cause readers to change what they think about the world
  • NOT HOW YOU THINK
  • What makes text valuable is how the readers percieve how they changed how they think
