Did You Know...

In 10 Tips on How to Write Less Badly, Michael Munger suggests that you think of your writing “as an answer to a puzzle.”

“There are many interesting types of puzzles:

  • ‘X and Y start with same assumptions but reach opposing conclusions. How?’
  • ‘Here are three problems that all seem different. Surprisingly, all are the same problem, in disguise. I'll tell you why.’
  • ‘Theory predicts [something]. But we observe [something else]. Is the theory wrong, or is there some other factor we have left out?’

“Don't stick too closely to those formulas, but they are helpful in presenting your work to an audience, whether that audience is composed of listeners at a lecture or readers of an article.”
