hey guys, this was sent to me the other day, u may find it interesting cheers dm WRITING FUNDAMENTALS: A SPEED PRIMER Ya shoulda learned this stuff in high school but you were too busy staring at the breasts growing over there on the chicklet at the next desk. It's okay. You're forgiven. In fact, there would have been something wrong with you if you preferred grammar (or gramma)! So here's a quick rundown. The points are simple, but crucial. Old bad habits die hard. Don't misspell Dude, use your spell-check, stick your file in Word and spell-check it. Are you a computer idiot? Use a dictionary. Women hate it when men misspell. It shows sloppiness, an inattention to detail. And women like attention to detail - just consider their predilection for oh, things like decoration and foreplay. Get it? The two words I see misspelled most often - "independent" and "definitely". Avoid clich้s You are not a "hopeless romantic", a "gentleman and a scholar", or "a boy next door". Please. It's been done. To death. Avoid general, generic language You don't like walks on the beach, a nice wine with dinner, feel comfortable in jeans and t shirt. Dude - go read some guy sites and see how often men write the same thing. They are clueless. More importantly, to an attractive woman online, they are the same as all the other... invisible. Instead, I will show you how to write with vivid, sensual, suggestive detail. Be precise in your language Say "Chicago Blues" - which is better than "blues". "Shiraz" is better than "wine". (no Chardonnay (feminine), no Merlot (lazy)). The Palms is better than "Vegas." Ribeye steak is better than mere steak. Azure is better than blue. Aspen grove is better than forest. The more precisely you can paint the environment of your life, the more tactilely and sensuallly her imagination will project her into it. Be dynamic in your language That means active verbs. Verbs that pack power, action, movement. Avoid static words like "is" "are" and "have" - those are static verbs. Use dynamic verbs - USE A THESAURUS to make your sentences sizzle. Show, Don't Tell Possibly the most important writing rule of all. Don't list. Don't talk about. Don't tell about yourself. Show yourself. If you're funny, don't say you're funny - be funny. If you love your little nephew don't (clich้) say he's the "light of my life" - paint a picture of something you and he do together or how he makes you laugh. This is the difference between George Clooney coming on screen and telling you the story of Ocean's 11, and George Clooney in the action of it. Which is more interesting? Show your life, don't describe it. Write little movie scenes in your profile. She will be drawn into that movie. ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ This is a great quote from one of my favorite teachers, David Ogilvy - probalby the greatest advertising genius of all time. "Did it make me gasp when I first saw it?" was his first litmus test for a new advertising campaign. Does YOUR profile make women gasp when they see it? Does your username? Your photos? Most guys have the same boring pictures in their profile that everyone else has. In a Tux. By their car. Posing with a wine or beer glass. With a former girlfriend (D'oh!) You, too? |
