I want to be a 'handsome' writer at least

Hello!

In the kindergarten play "Snow White,"
I was cast as one of the "seven dwarfs."

"Who wants to play the Prince in 'Snow White'?"

"Me! Me! Pick me!"

Even though I was the first to raise my hand
when the teacher asked,

the one chosen to play the Prince was
a handsome classmate who looked like Dekisugi-kun (from Doraemon)
who raised his hand later.

It was the same in elementary school.

In the school festival's "Beauty and the Beast,"the role I played was Cogsworth,

the butler who was magically turned into a clock.
Oh, the misery (tears).

Always...

The one who lands the star role
is the handsome classmate.

At the very least, I want my writing
to be handsome (earnest wish).

Handsome people are popular in writing too.

After all, easy-to-read,
charming, and "handsome" documents
are popular!

Unlike your looks,
writing handsome text
is easy once you get the hang of it!

[First Impression] The Importance of an Eye-Catching Title

An eye-catching title is just like a first impression.

Just like styling your hair perfectly,
set your title carefully
to grab the reader's interest!

The title is what creates the spark for the reader to
"I might want to talk to this person."think.

That is what a title does.

For example,

“A collection of heartwarming short stories to read in the season when you miss your futon!”

“Understand it in 10 minutes! A stock investment guide for beginners”

Specific and
intriguing titles like these are effective.

[Make them fall in love at first sight] The power of eye-catching images

An image that catches the eye at a glance is like
an attractive 'face' that leads the reader
into the text itself.

Because a single image
can change the atmosphere of the entire piece,

make sure to include
the title in the image to make it catchy!

Especially on note, the title and
the eye-catching image

greatly influence the number of page views so
they are super important!

[The moment you fall in love] Grab their heart with the opening

Just like the first words on a first date,
the text also needs to
grab the reader's heart within the first few lines.

An interesting fact, a story that invites empathy...

Or perhaps a slightly mysterious phrase.

“I want to know more!”

If you can make the reader think that, you win!

For example,

“Yesterday, on my way to work, I had an encounter that changed my life”

A sentence that feels like a story is about to begin
captures the reader's interest.

Draw them in with an opening that stimulates curiosity
and makes them want to read the next sentence!

[Just like a suit] Techniques for dressing up your writing

Pay attention to the visual design as well.

Easy-to-read line spacing,
and sentence lengths that are easy to view on a smartphone.

The balance between hiragana and kanji.

These are all part of "dressing up" your writing.

For example,

・The ideal sentence length is 15 to 25 characters.

・A balance of 7:3 between hiragana and kanji is easy to read.

Just like having a sense of balance when wearing a suit,
simple and easy to read is best!

Furthermore,
if you can dress it down a little,
that would be cool, right?

Writing is about expressing yourself.

If your writing is "handsome,"
you might even find yourself "surrounded by fans"
before you know it.

For that reason,
"making your writing handsome" is essential!

P.S.

It would be frustrating if only my writing were handsome,
so I asked AI
to make my icon handsome too.

But, it feels a bit off (lol)...
