Article Writing
Subject writing means a writer puts forward what he believes instead of what the reality is. Ideas of different writers will be different on the same subject or issue. However, the format of the article remains almost same for all the writers.
A writer needs to check the following points in his/her article :
Title : Every article must have a suitable title on the top of the page. The article can be of single word or a phrase of not more than five words. All the naming words should begin with capital letter in the title.
Byline : Byline means the name of the writer written just below the title of the article, e.g., 'By Abhishek'. If the name of the writer is not given in the question, you can write 'by XYZ' instead of your original name.
Body of the article : Like all living organisms, an article has a head, i.e., a small and catchy beginning and feet, i.e. a suitable conclusion which any reader would reach after reading the article.
Cohesiveness : Cohesiveness means that there should be a perfect order of sentences and passages in your article. Words, phrases and sentences, in a passage should follow one after another in a natural order. The reader shouldn't find the sentences and passages out of place and disorderly arranged.
Clarity of the objective : The writer should compose his/her article in such a manner that the reader should be able to understand whether the content is to persuade, inform, awaken or encourage him. When you know the objective or aim of your writing, your language gets shaped accordingly.
Abstinence from irrelevant matter : The writer should not add unnecessary and irrelevant details in his article. He should be able to separate the chaff from the wheat.
