Tip Three: Break it up.

One of the easiest techniques to use to make your writing easy to follow is to use subheads in your text.

Subheads are words or phrases that stand on a line by themselves at the beginning of a section and tell the reader the main idea you will present in that section.

This is a subhead.

If you’ve ever read a textbook, you’ve seen subheads. Take a look at almost any scholarly article or nonfiction book and you’ll see them.

Any document that goes beyond a page or two will be easier to follow if it contains subheads.

Next: Keep it simple.
