A lesson for one of my writing partner clients

When I work with clients as their writing partner I not only edit/rewrite their work, but I also teach them why I make the changes I make and how they can become a stronger writer moving forward.

Here’s an example of a note I gave to a recent client explaining an edit I made for him on his social post:

When possible, push your statements to make them more definitive (and therefore more interesting).

For example, consider the difference between your line “I heard it so often I almost believed it” and mine “I can’t believe how wrong I was. I fell for the biggest myth in social media when it comes to authors.”

More definitive = More interesting.
