How to Write a Paragraph That Will Capture Attention Spans
By:Rick Wystan

Learning how to write and writing well is going to be required of you sooner or later. Whether you have to write for professional purposes or writing that letter of introduction to someone special. That day will come and if you don't have an idea how to just grab a hold of someone's attention span then you are doomed.

How would you like to write to that degree where people can't put down your words?

If you answered in the affirmative well then I'll give you some information that just might help you in that direction.

All writing starts off with paragraphs that will give the reader a glimpse in what is in store for them. Keeping the attention span of people during this brief period of time is crucial and so you must adhere to some basic tenets of writing.

Keep the reader enthralled in your words. You can do this by having the reader touch, imagining the sounds, smelling the different flavors of what you are describing. If you have first hand knowledge of the subject you are writing about then bringing someone into your world shouldn't be hard to do.

If you don't have experience in the subject then all you have to do is read a couple of books on the subject and you're in the know.

You need to paint a picture as you write the paragraph with that ulterior motive in mind. Keep the reader involved and you will have success in having that person to the end of the article. Mission accomplished.

If you want to start learning the basics of writing then here is your chance. If you want writing tips http://www.howtowriteoutlinereports.com/ you have that option as well.
