They are looking for writing tips not speaking tips.
- sokoloff 8y agoOP said “([present] or [argue) a point in writing]”. I naturally group that using the square brackets above, not the parens. If you use parens, it’s writing only. With the square bracket grouping, it includes speaking tips.
- exodust 8y agoFair enough.
- wenc 8y agoFair point, though in my creative writing class most of the same points were taught and emphasized. Especially "show, don't tell". For example: - don't say "He's really good at distributed databases." - say "He pondered over how to handle multi-master write conflicts. The answer came to him in the shower: CRDTs"
