3 questions to ask to write the right way:

Yo anon.

As a beginner writer, I used to ramble on like an idiot.

“I’ll write about whatever the f*ck I want because why not?”

And then whined like a 2 year old baby when nobody read it.

But the more I wrote, the sooner I realized that most beginner writers make this mistake.

They just dive straight into writing without considering their audience's needs.

They churn out content that fails to connect with readers and wonder why their writing falls flat.

“Kush, I get your f*cking point. Is there a way around that?”

Apart from your testosterone fuelled swearing, I’m glad you asked.

You can simply start off by asking yourself these 3 simple questions before you write to make sure you’re writing the right way:

1. What Problem Am I Solving?

Here’s a harsh truth for you as a writer:

Nobody gives a shit about you.

Unless you give a shit about them.

And how do you show you actually give a shit about them?

Simple.

Identify the specific problem your audience is struggling with.

Not a whole bunch of them. Just the most pressing one so they feel emotionally invested in your writing to read the whole goddamned whole thing.

Another benefit of asking this question is that forces you to focus your content & make it more relevant + valuable for the reader.

Be specific with the problem you’re solving.

2. Whose Problem Am I Solving?

Let me paint you a picture.

You have an audience of fitness enthusiasts interested in building an audience on OnlyFans.

And you publish a post that talks about all the ways formatting can improve your writing & get you more followers.

Do you think your audience will be interested in that?

Unless they’re high on mushrooms, the answer’s probably a big fat no.

Which is why this second question is so important.

It makes sure you’re writing for your target audience.

Another thing this does is it helps you to target everything you write to their needs, increasing engagement and effectiveness.

One thing you could do is create a reader persona that includes demographics, interests, and pain points to guide your writing.

Or just write to your past self & solve problems you had a few weeks, months or years ago.

3. Why Should the Reader Read This?

I’ll throw that harsh truth your way once again.

Your reader doesn’t care about you if you don’t care about them. And another way to show them that you care about them is to give a solution to their problems.

You can’t just say “I know about your problem” and expect them to read on if you’re not going to give them a solution.

When you highlight the benefits, readers are immediately hooked into your writing.

It instantly grabs their attention.

The best way to do that is to write a hook that clearly states what the reader will gain from your content.

So yeah.

That’s about it for today.

Hope you enjoyed reading it.

As always, if you have any questions, shoot it my way so I can help you out with it.

I’ll see you next time.

Cheers.
