| Creativity
is not as hard as you think. Just like car repair and plumbing,
writing is a craft that can be learned and improved. |

|
|
| Of course, not every sentence needs to be showy, but it really helps to sprinkle in some lively bits of writing. |
|
|
|
- Hook your readers with a wow start!!
|
Instead of:
Everyone is so busy these days. |
| |
How about:
The soundtrack of our lives is constantly on shuffle. |
| |
- With some tweaking and recasting, it's possible to turn an offhand sentence into something inspired.
|
Instead of:
Real estate may be heading for a downturn, but agents shouldn't panic. |
| |
How about:
My best advice to you agents - don't act as helpless as possums on the road. |
| |
- Think of your prose as a paintbrush that instantly creates pictures in your reader's mind.
|
Instead of:
Is your boss always giving you the third degree? |
| |
How about:
Does your boss fire his sentences like bullets? |
