Key ideas

  1. Different forms (essay, story, letter, script) suit different messages.

  2. Inquiry supplies the raw material a writer turns into ideas.

  3. Social media reaches wide audiences quickly and often permanently.

  4. The form a writer chooses shapes how meaning reaches the reader.

  5. Gathered information sparks angles, questions, and claims.

Watch out for

  • Writing every piece in the same default form.
  • Starting to write before gathering any information.
  • Treating a social post as private or temporary.
