.:|:. Explanation .:|:.

Type 1: Brainstorming

You need to spend some time thinking about what matters today. What will hook your readers in and intrigue them. What will make them flip to the next page. You need to spend some time thinking about good topics. Whether you are writing a book, a non-fiction book, whatever you are writing needs to have a great topic. One that your reader will love to read and turn the next page.

How this helps:

Brainstorming can improve your essay or book or whatever you are writing, because without good ideas, you won't hook your reader in.

Type 2: Clustering

Once you have your topic, write around it. Meaning, what centers around this topic or idea. let's take the topic "Daily life." If this is your topic (not saying it is), then you want to write about it. Your exercise routine, your morning routine, work, kids, school, whatever it is you do. Cluster, and gather all the necessary information you need.

How it helps:

This helps because you now have everything that you are going to write. You have the ideas and the mess that you can later turn into a story or book or whatever. You have your general ideas.

Type 3: Free Writing

Write, write, write. Don't create a rough draft. Don't worry about spelling,  punctuation, whether or not your readers like it, just write everything down. You can edit it and improve it later. Just write your thoughts and ideas down. You have to start somewhere, so start now.

How this helps:

This helps because you have something you can work with. You have your base plan. Now you have to add in, take out, and improve.

Type 4: Looping

Re-state your main point. This is looping. Always make sure that after every 10 sentences or so, you loop back to your main point. Don'y go off on a rabbit trail. Stay with the audience, and push them through slowly. Remind them what you are writing about, and what they are reading about.

How it helps:

Looping helps because it takes the reader back to the main point. You don't want to keep going and never reflect. Stop, and remind them what the topic is about.

Type 5: Asking the six journalist's questions (Who, what, where, when, why, how?)

Don't forget to ask questions. Who is this about? What is it about? Where is it taking place? Why is is happening? How did it happen? With these questions answered, you won't leave the audience constantly wondering where they are in the story or essay. Don't forget these questions.

How it helps:

This helps the reader smooth out the essay or story. They won't get lost, and they know the vital information.
