How to Improve Your Writing and Actually Get People to Read It
Write for your reader, not yourself The best way to improve your writing is to start writing for your readers, not yourself. To do this, you need to put on a reader’s hat and think about the problems your readers are facing. What questions are they asking? What problems are they trying to solve? One of the easiest ways to do this is to imagine that your readers are in the same room as you. As you write, talk directly to them, as if they were sitting right in front of you. This will help you to be more empathetic toward your readers, and make your writing more reader-focused. Your readers don’t want to hear about how great you are, they want to learn something that will solve a problem they’re facing.

Finally, I Can Call Myself a Writer
For years I didn’t consider myself a writer. I considered myself a wanna-be writer. Someone who wanted to be a writer but wasn’t quite there yet. I had all the excuses. I don’t have time. I’m not good enough. What would I even write about? But then one day, something clicked. I realized that all the things that were holding me back from being a writer were actually just excuses.
