(From a post on Amazon narratives)
Separate out Writing from Editing!
Write a first draft without worrying about the clutter
All first drafts of everything are garbage...Ernest Hemingway
Edit the draft into subsequent drafts using rules of Amazon below: see below an edit Hemingway quote above 😁
The first draft of anything is sh*t 😁
1. Use shorter than 30 words per sentence!
Due to the fact that => because
2. Replace adjectives with data
- we made the server faster vs we improved the server latency from 10ms to 1ms
3. Eliminate Weasel words
-nearly all customers should be 80% of Prime Customers
4. Does your writing pass the "So what" test?
5. If you get a question reply with one of the four answers
a. Yes
b. No
c. A number
d. I don't know (will follow up and let you know)
