All writing requires these technical skills, and it is so important to know how to gather the pieces of a text, as well as dominate spelling and score for the message to reach the reader in perfect conditions, with communicative efficiency.

  1. Originality and utility

Do not repeat what others have already written. What you can do is recommend something already published that has impacted and send it to the reader. Try to bring something new or look for a personal approach. You can put in the reader's place and think if it is useful for you because if it is, it will probably also be for them.

  1. Reading agility

So that his writing does not have the reader, he will have to build an agile text, avoiding long periods that lethargic and not breathe those who read it. Keep in mind that a paragraph without pauses, with a stepped succession of subordinates, is like a long climb through the mountain without place to recover your breath.
