Dear #buddingwriter,
Let’s talk about colloquialism.
This is casual, everyday language used in a certain area or region. It makes writing less formal and can be used to make dialogues more real and personal.
N.B: It’s different from slang and jargon.

Dear #buddingwriter
This new year, make time for your craft. Don’t wait until you have work to do your research.
Read books, articles, poems, anything you can, even if they’re not related to your chosen path.
Connect with other writers and see what they’re reading and writing.
Dear #buddingwriter,
This is some personal advise to have someone proofread your writing before you put it out.
Many times, what sounds good/right to you (because you wrote it) may not sound the same to your readers.
This also helps with fact-checking and related matters.
Dear #buddingwriter,
“Never use 10 words where five will do.”
Avoid unnecessary phrases, tautologies and wordiness.
Writing should be concise to get the message across. Otherwise, readers are discouraged and they miss the point.

Dear #buddingwriter,
Apostrophes (’) are used to show possession (e.g. Ife’s) or to replace missing letters in contractions (e.g. don’t) NOT for the plural form of words.
P.S: apostrophes don’t apply to pronouns (i.e. hers not her’s).

Dear #buddingwriter,

Dear #buddingwriter,
Let’s talk about the em dash (—).
A versatile punctuation mark used in twos to draw focus to the words between them, explain the preceding word/phrase, or to reduce the commas in a sentence when expressing multiple ideas.
