Write Mighty Tight Freebie

Write Tight Blessings

In many circumstances of a writer’s life, we are required to write tight. I don’t know about you, but I am a word-lover. I also have the gift of gab. That gift emerged while I learned the craft of communicating in writing.

In the beginning of my writer’s journey, my critique group often slashed half my pages—so many unnecessary words! Four years passed, since I challenged myself to condense stories into very short versions according to a publisher’s guidelines. The results paid off when they published those stories!

Whether you wish to hone your craft, write for social media blurbs, or devotionals and articles, this is one valuable skill to learn for your career.

Take up the challenge and go practice! I’d love your feedback on how this worksheet helped you.

I’m E.V. Sparrow

Coffee imbiber, chocolate connoisseur (sugar free please, so I don’t have to give it up), and the studier of personalities. My current book series of 3 is historical fiction inspired by my quirky great grandfather on my dad’s side of the family tree. On October 27, 2024, The BookFest Awards bestowed First Place in General Historical Fiction upon it! Stunningly unexpected.

Book 2 focuses on his sister’s life, and Book 3 reveals some of his son’s life.

According to many rumors, authors never stop learning. I’m studying and reading cozy mysteries for future projects. I’ve convinced myself I’ve adjusted to the black hole of writing and the author’s life. Why not add more challenges? What could happen?

Glad you’ve visited my site, and hope you’re intrigued enough for us to connect further on social media.
