Writing - Tara Vracevic and Edward T. Thompson - DJP (2025)

How to write clearly? (See article linked below).

I'd say - write clearly. Understand that most of your readers will often know less about the topic you are writing about than you know so it is best to use language that everyone understands and relates to.

Occassionally I come across an intro to an article that some people may find "captivating" but I for one don't usually know enough about the journalist / writer to be "captivated" by so don't read the article or scroll through it looking for anything strong that jumps out.

The main writer who has had the most impact on my life - both from what he wrote about and his style of writing - was M. Scott Peck.

Also in terms of journalism (and I don't see myself as being a professional journalist mind) having interview material aka quotes to choose from to use for your article or report is essential especially if it is a report. Sometimes one interview with quotes is enough, other times more than one interview is better or more ideal.

I wouldn't have the grit to work full-time in journalism and have never written a book nor indeed a post graduate thesis so don't take my advice too seriously though. 😊
