Have you ever felt a little insecure about your writing in English? Maybe you’re worried it won’t sound natural, or that people won’t get your message. Well, you're not alone! In this episode, I sit down with Jon Clemence, and we talk about how to make your writing better and more effective, no matter your level.
Jon shares a super simple but powerful writing framework that he uses to make his content really hit home. It all starts with a hook to grab attention, then keeping sentences short and sweet, and wrapping things up with one clear call to action. He also talks about how to connect with audiences from different cultures, especially when you're writing for a global audience.
We also talk about using AI as a tool in the writing process. Jon explains how he uses AI to organize ideas and brainstorm, but he stresses that it’s important not to let AI take over your thinking or your creativity. The key is using it to support your writing, not replace it.
Key Takeaways:
- Progress in writing often means being okay with imperfect first drafts
- Use short paragraphs and simple sentences to improve readability on screens.
- One strong message is more powerful than five scattered ones
