Now, let’s look at transparency 27, Editing:grammar.
Giving opinions without supporting your thoughts
makes it difficult for readers to believe your writing.
If you tell too much about the story and its ending, your
readers will not need to read the book themselves.
If you don’t give enough information, your readers may
not be interested enough to read your book.
When the supporting sentences stray from the topic of
the paragraph, readers can get lost or lose interest.
