Advice on better writing?

Question

The only problem I have with writing is organization and fluidity.How can I improve my writing style and make my writing more cohesive?

Answer 1

I'm not sure why this is in drawing, but OK.

Have you tried outlining? You don't have to do the formal Roman numeral thing. You can just organize it by section. It also depends on what kind of writing you are doing. You want to get your most important point down first. That's always helpful.

As for making it flow, transitional words usually help. Things like "however, also, in addition to" etc.

It's important to slow down and read your sentences one by one. Ask yourself if it relates to the sentence before it and if that thought leads into the next.

I could go on all day because this isn't something that comes with a quick and easy answer, but if you want assistance, try the website below. I recommend it to my students all the time.

Answer 2

In whatever you do, I think if you have great research the rest will have an intense amount of fluidity. Also, with research, if you have passion for your topic organization won't be an issue.

It might sound like I am your second grade teacher, but to improve your organization you can definitely write out an outline. If your writing is organized then it will flow well.

Greatest of luck in your writing!
