Write with Urgency

You've had it happen too, I'm sure. You're reading along when you hear this high-pitched voice in the back of your head that becomes louder and louder, “Booooring!”

One way to reduce boredom among your readers is to write with a sense of urgency. After all, if what you’re saying is not important, why write it?

As I read your words, I want to sense that you really want my attention. I want your writing to be like hands on my shoulders as you look me in the eyes and say what you have to say.

It’s about taking my time seriously. It’s about believing what you say matters.
