Day 172: Use transition words infrequently.

Day 163 discussed using transition words to inform your reader that you are switching topics. Although this is perfectly acceptable (and sometimes necessary), you should only use this technique sparingly.

In effective writing, you relate new topics to previous topics so that each new idea seems like a logical extension of the previous topic. When you begin writing about the new topic, your first task is to discuss how it relates to the previous topic. If you are switching to a new topic, ask yourself these questions:

  1. Why do I need to write about this new topic at this time?
  2. How does this new topic relate to the one I just discussed?
  3. Will the reader be able to answer the first two questions?

 

 

 

 

Do this well, and the reader will know you are writing about a new topic and will understand why. You won’t need the transition words.
