They follow you for your content, your ideas your fuckups
Not for someone else's stuff
So if you want your audience to connect more with you
You should go with truth threads more
The writing process
1.Finding the idea
2.Brain dump
3.Refining the dump
4.Cutting the edges
5.Crafting the heading
6.Finding the banger image
7. The End
1.Finding the idea
When someone tells me that they are not finding ideas for writing
I laugh my ass off
Because it’s not possible
If you are running low on ideas you are thinking too small
Ideas are fucking everywhere
How do I find ideas?
I go on an idea hunt once a week
How???
-Go to Twitter
-Read other people’s tweets
-Take a note of what different opinion you have
-See what people are asking under best threads
-What people want to know more
-What people are asking in your dms
What are your best-performing tweets expand on that
Use those ideas & fit them into any of these categories
-Your opinion on it
-Your learnings on it
-Your experience with that idea
-How to do it in an easier way
-What you have read or found useful recently about it ?
You can write about any of them
Now you have got the idea it's time for a brain dump
2. Brain dump
Sit down
Write every fucking word that pops into your brain related to that idea
NO judgment NO thinking about perfection
Just vomit words
I am doing it right now
I am not judging I am just banging these keys
Knowing that you’ll find shit tons of value in this thread because it's my truth
& it will resonate
Mostly it depends on what topic you are writing
but brain dump doesn't take more than 15-20 minutes
Now your brain is empty
You have put that idea out in the world
It’s time for refining that shit
3.Refining the dump
Now go out & fuck around a little bit
Come back & see what you have written with fresh eyes
Take notes side by side
You'll find a pattern
A journey
A path in your shit
Just take the notes of those stopping points
Your notes are your subheadings
Categorize your whole brain dump into those subheadings
Now
You have written something which has some flow
4. Cutting the edges
Now read it all again
If something doesn't resonate with you
Seems like bullshit
Remove it
Edit ruthlessly
This is the hack of best writers
They write like you & me
But they are the greek God of editing
So do that
What must be left with you now is pure truth with
tons of value with the least amount of bullshit
5.Creating the heading
Your heading is the most important part of your thread
I have spent 4 hours writing the best threads of my life but they didn't work
Because their heading was shit
Headings are like tik tok videos
Their main job is to capture your attention
By god's grace & my laziness I am terrible at it
But @dickiebush wrote a banger thread on writing headings
