 - [Style is a small part of writing well. Most of writing is thinking clearly.](https://www.julian.com/guide/write/intro) The act of simply putting a thought into words makes it immediately obvious to you if you really understand it or not, and if not, where your blind spots are. For style:
   - [**Be concise**](https://stephanango.com/concise). Understand the topic you're writing about. [Use simple words and sentences](http://www.paulgraham.com/simply.html). Put the most important things first. Never use a long word when a short one will do. Explain ideas in simple terms, strongly and clearly, so that they can be rebutted, remixed, reworked — or built upon. Concise explanations accelerate [[Making Decisions|making decisions]] and make ideas useful. One idea can more easily be combined with another idea to form a third idea!
   - **Be Useful**. Before you start writing, ask yourself: What purpose does this serve? Who is going to read it? What do they need to know?
+  - [**Be epistemically honest**](https://x.com/TheZvi/status/2092307987314733410). Avoid micro-dishonesty: don't smuggle in your point, hide weaknesses, use a misleading introduction, or pretend events unfolded differently. Readers notice.
   - **Be specific**. Avoid vague language (remove qualifiers). Cut the fluff. Delete unnecessary words. Say what you mean. Make positive statements about reality.
     - You can almost always replace an adverb with a better, more specific verb, or describe what you mean instead. Remove the adverb and commit to saying whatever you're saying.
     - Instead of using constructions with "of" or "for", rewrite the sentence to put more information before the noun.

   - Support your thesis with arguments. Repeat yourself (within reason). Look for ways that you can restate your point, clarify, or provide closure for the reader.

   - Conclusions.
 - Use positive language rather than negative language.
 - Human beings are wired to respond to storytelling. A story arc is a way to structure ideas to tap into this response, typically by describing a change in the world. This applies to everything, e.g: [[Public Speaking]].
-- Don't fully think through your ideas before writing. It's inefficient. The best way to think is by writing. It compels your brain to connect the dots. [Write whatever helps you think better](https://twitter.com/eugeneyan/status/1256828197410201601).
+- Find out whether you think mostly on the page or in your head. If you think on the page, don't fully think through your ideas before writing: writing compels your brain to connect the dots. If you think in your head, struggling may mean you need more reading or time for ideas to marinate. [Write whatever helps you think better](https://twitter.com/eugeneyan/status/1256828197410201601).
+- Do enough research for the material to change your initial hypothesis. If an essay emerges in exactly the shape of its outline, the research did not teach you enough. See [[Learning]].
 - [Don't try to _persuade_ people that the idea is true/good. Instead, try to accurately _describe_ where the idea came from, the path which led _you_ to think it's true/plausible/worth a look. In the process, you'll probably convey your own actual level of uncertainty, which is exactly the right thing to do.](https://www.lesswrong.com/posts/Psr9tnQFuEXiuqGcR/how-to-write-quickly-while-maintaining-epistemic-rigor)
 - Be self-aware about your knowledge level on a topic, and say "I'm not sure…" when you are not sure about something.
 - Separate the [[Processes|processes]] of creation from improvement. **You can't write and edit at the same [[Time|time]]**. Write the first draft fast, then iterate on it editing things. Much of this editing will be cutting, and that makes simple writing even simpler.
