Day 98: Link paragraphs to the prior paragraph.
The beginning of a paragraph establishes the context for the ideas it will present and shows how the new ideas connect to what you have just written. As such, the words and phrases at the beginning of a paragraph need to reflect the ideas at the end of the prior paragraph.
What this does is show how your ideas, as a whole, are logically connected, creating a sense of “flow” among the ideas so that the ideas do not seem disjointed. Let’s look at an example.
End of paragraph one: “What ground have we for thinking that art has ever been inspired as a message or revelation? What internal evidence is there in the work of great artists of their having been under the authoritative guidance of supernatural powers?”Start of paragraph two: “It is true that the answer to so mysterious a question cannot rest alone upon internal evidence; but it is well that you should know what might, from that evidence alone, be concluded.” (John Ruskin, 1870, “Lectures on Art”)
Ruskin connected paragraph two to paragraph one by using the words “answer” (referring to the questions just asked); “mysterious” (referring to “supernatural powers”); and “internal evidence” (referring to “internal evidence”), making paragraph two the logical continuation of paragraph one.
